    //creating an Integer value
    Integer val1 = 123;

    //creating a Float value
    Float val2 = 55.75f;

    //printing the byte value of given numbers
    System.out.println("byte value of val1: " + val1.byteValue()); 
    System.out.println("byte value of val2: " + val2.byteValue());   
  }
