Literal Formats for Integers

This section describes 4 literal formats for integer values: decimal, hex, octal and binary integer literals. The default integer literal data type is 'int'.

Java supports literals for 2 integer data types in 4 formats described below:

1. Decimal Integer Literal - Basic rules on decimal integer literals:

2. Hex Integer Literal - Basic rules on hex integer literals:

3. Octal Integer Literal - Basic rules on octal integer literals:

4. Binary Integer Literal - Basic rules on binary integer literals:
