Java.lang.Integer Class

Java Integer Class

Java.lang package provides an Integer class which wraps a value of the primitive type int in an object. An object of type Integer contains a single field whose type is int.

In addition, this class provides several methods for converting an int to a String and a String to an int, as well as other constants and methods useful when dealing with an int.

Class declaration

The declaration of java.lang.Integer class is:

public final class Integer
  extends Number
    implements Comparable<Integer>

Fields

S.NFields & Description
1. static int BYTES
The number of bytes used to represent a int value in two's complement binary form.
2. static int MAX_VALUE
A constant holding the maximum value an int can have, 231-1.
3. static int MIN_VALUE
A constant holding the minimum value an int can have, -231.
4. static int SIZE
The number of bits used to represent an int value in two's complement binary form.
5. static Class<Integer> TYPE
The Class instance representing the primitive type int.

java.lang.Integer Methods
