PRIMITIVE DATA TYPES IN JAVA
byte:
1 signed byte (two's complement). Covers values from -128 to 127.
short:
2 bytes, signed (two's complement), -32,768 to 32,767
int:
4 bytes, signed (two's complement). -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647. Like all numeric types ints may be cast into other numeric types (byte, short, long, float, double). When lossy casts are done (e.g. int to byte) the conversion is done modulo the length of the smaller type.
long:
8 bytes signed (two's complement). Ranges from -9,223,372,036,854,775,808 to +9,223,372,036,854,775,807.
float:
4 bytes. Covers a range from 1.40129846432481707e-45 to 3.40282346638528860e+38 (positive or negative). Like all numeric types floats may be cast into other numeric types (
byte
, short
, long
, int
, double
). When lossy casts to integer types are done (e.g. float
to short
) the fractional part is truncated and the conversion is done modulo the length of the smaller type.double:
1-bit. May take on the values
true
and false
only. true
and false
are defined constants of the language and are not the same as True
and False
, TRUE
and FALSE
, zero and nonzero, 1 and 0 or any other numeric value. Booleans may not be cast into any other type of variable nor may any other variable be cast into a boolean.char:
2 bytes, unsigned, Unicode, 0 to 65,535
