The Integer class 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.
 
 
Implementation note: The implementations of the "bit twiddling"
 methods (such as highestOneBit and
 numberOfTrailingZeros) are
 based on material from Henry S. Warren, Jr.'s Hacker's
 Delight, (Addison Wesley, 2002).

Public constructors
Integer
public Integer (int value)
      This constructor is deprecated.
    It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory
 valueOf(int) is generally a better choice, as it is
 likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.
  
Constructs a newly allocated Integer object that
 represents the specified int value.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| value | int: the value to be represented by theIntegerobject. | 
Integer
public Integer (String s)
      This constructor is deprecated.
    It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor.
 Use parseInt(java.lang.String) to convert a string to a
 int primitive, or use valueOf(java.lang.String)
 to convert a string to an Integer object.
  
Constructs a newly allocated Integer object that
 represents the int value indicated by the
 String parameter. The string is converted to an
 int value in exactly the manner used by the
 parseInt method for radix 10.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| s | String: theStringto be converted to anInteger. | 
| Throws | |
|---|---|
| NumberFormatException | if the Stringdoes not
              contain a parsable integer. | 
Public methods
bitCount
public static int bitCount (int i)
Returns the number of one-bits in the two's complement binary
 representation of the specified int value.  This function is
 sometimes referred to as the population count.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| i | int: the value whose bits are to be counted | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| int | the number of one-bits in the two's complement binary
     representation of the specified intvalue. | 
byteValue
public byte byteValue ()
Returns the value of this Integer as a byte
 after a narrowing primitive conversion.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| byte | the numeric value represented by this object after conversion
          to type byte. | 
compare
public static int compare (int x, 
                int y)Compares two int values numerically.
 The value returned is identical to what would be returned by:
 
    Integer.valueOf(x).compareTo(Integer.valueOf(y))
 | Parameters | |
|---|---|
| x | int: the firstintto compare | 
| y | int: the secondintto compare | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| int | the value 0ifx == y;
         a value less than0ifx < y; and
         a value greater than0ifx > y | 
compareTo
public int compareTo (Integer anotherInteger)
Compares two Integer objects numerically.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| anotherInteger | Integer: theIntegerto be compared. | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| int | the value 0if thisIntegeris
          equal to the argumentInteger; a value less than0if thisIntegeris numerically less
          than the argumentInteger; and a value greater
          than0if thisIntegeris numerically
           greater than the argumentInteger(signed
           comparison). | 
compareUnsigned
public static int compareUnsigned (int x, 
                int y)Compares two int values numerically treating the values
 as unsigned.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| x | int: the firstintto compare | 
| y | int: the secondintto compare | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| int | the value 0ifx == y; a value less
         than0ifx < yas unsigned values; and
         a value greater than0ifx > yas
         unsigned values | 
compress
public static int compress (int i, 
                int mask)Returns the value obtained by compressing the bits of the
 specified int value, i, in accordance with
 the specified bit mask.
 
 For each one-bit value mb of the mask, from least
 significant to most significant, the bit value of i at
 the same bit location as mb is assigned to the compressed
 value contiguously starting from the least significant bit location.
 All the upper remaining bits of the compressed value are set
 to zero.
API Note:
- Consider the simple case of compressing the digits of a hexadecimal
 value:
 lang="java" : // Compressing drink to food compress(0xCAFEBABE, 0xFF00FFF0) == 0xCABABStarting from the least significant hexadecimal digit at position 0 from the right, the mask0xFF00FFF0selects hexadecimal digits at positions 1, 2, 3, 6 and 7 of0xCAFEBABE. The selected digits occur in the resulting compressed value contiguously from digit position 0 in the same order.The following identities all return trueand are helpful to understand the behaviour ofcompress:lang="java" : // Returns 1 if the bit at position n is one compress(x, 1 << n) == (x >> n & 1) // Logical shift right compress(x, -1 << n) == x >>> n // Any bits not covered by the mask are ignored compress(x, m) == compress(x & m, m) // Compressing a value by itself compress(m, m) == (m == -1 || m == 0) ? m : (1 << bitCount(m)) - 1 // Expanding then compressing with the same mask compress(expand(x, m), m) == x & compress(m, m)The Sheep And Goats (SAG) operation (see Hacker's Delight, section 7.7) can be implemented as follows: lang="java" : int compressLeft(int i, int mask) { // This implementation follows the description in Hacker's Delight which // is informative. A more optimal implementation is: // Integer.compress(i, mask) << -Integer.bitCount(mask) return Integer.reverse( Integer.compress(Integer.reverse(i), Integer.reverse(mask))); } int sag(int i, int mask) { return compressLeft(i, mask) | Integer.compress(i, ~mask); } // Separate the sheep from the goats sag(0xCAFEBABE, 0xFF00FFF0) == 0xCABABFEE
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| i | int: the value whose bits are to be compressed | 
| mask | int: the bit mask | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| int | the compressed value |

decode
public static Integer decode (String nm)
Decodes a String into an Integer.
 Accepts decimal, hexadecimal, and octal numbers given
 by the following grammar:
 
DecimalNumeral, HexDigits, and OctalDigits are as defined in section {@jls 3.10.1} of The Java Language Specification, except that underscores are not accepted between digits.

+
The sequence of characters following an optional
 sign and/or radix specifier ("0x", "0X",
 "#", or leading zero) is parsed as by the Integer.parseInt method with the indicated radix (10, 16, or
 8).  This sequence of characters must represent a positive
 value or a NumberFormatException will be thrown.  The
 result is negated if first character of the specified String is the minus sign.  No whitespace characters are
 permitted in the String.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| nm | String: theStringto decode. | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| Integer | an Integerobject holding theintvalue represented bynm | 
| Throws | |
|---|---|
| NumberFormatException | if the Stringdoes not
            contain a parsable integer. |

divideUnsigned
public static int divideUnsigned (int dividend, 
                int divisor)Returns the unsigned quotient of dividing the first argument by the second where each argument and the result is interpreted as an unsigned value.
Note that in two's complement arithmetic, the three other
 basic arithmetic operations of add, subtract, and multiply are
 bit-wise identical if the two operands are regarded as both
 being signed or both being unsigned.  Therefore separate addUnsigned, etc. methods are not provided.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| dividend | int: the value to be divided | 
| divisor | int: the value doing the dividing | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| int | the unsigned quotient of the first argument divided by the second argument | 
See also:
doubleValue

 after a widening primitive conversion.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| double | the numeric value represented by this object after conversion
          to type double. | 
equals
public boolean equals (Object obj)

|---|---|
| obj | Object: the object to compare with. | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| boolean | trueif the objects are the same;falseotherwise. |

                int mask)Returns the value obtained by expanding the bits of the
 specified int value, i, in accordance with
 the specified bit mask.
 
 For each one-bit value mb of the mask, from least
 significant to most significant, the next contiguous bit value
 of i starting at the least significant bit is assigned
 to the expanded value at the same bit location as mb.
 All other remaining bits of the expanded value are set to zero.
API Note:
- Consider the simple case of expanding the digits of a hexadecimal
 value:
 lang="java" : expand(0x0000CABAB, 0xFF00FFF0) == 0xCA00BAB0Starting from the least significant hexadecimal digit at position 0 from the right, the mask0xFF00FFF0selects the first five hexadecimal digits of0x0000CABAB. The selected digits occur in the resulting expanded value in order at positions 1, 2, 3, 6, and 7.The following identities all return trueand are helpful to understand the behaviour ofexpand:lang="java" : // Logically shift right the bit at position 0 expand(x, 1 << n) == (x & 1) << n // Logically shift right expand(x, -1 << n) == x << n // Expanding all bits returns the mask expand(-1, m) == m // Any bits not covered by the mask are ignored expand(x, m) == expand(x, m) & m // Compressing then expanding with the same mask expand(compress(x, m), m) == x & mThe select operation for determining the position of the one-bit with index nin aintvalue can be implemented as follows:lang="java" : int select(int i, int n) { // the one-bit in i (the mask) with index n int nthBit = Integer.expand(1 << n, i); // the bit position of the one-bit with index n return Integer.numberOfTrailingZeros(nthBit); } // The one-bit with index 0 is at bit position 1 select(0b10101010_10101010, 0) == 1 // The one-bit with index 3 is at bit position 7 select(0b10101010_10101010, 3) == 7
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| i | int: the value whose bits are to be expanded | 
| mask | int: the bit mask | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| int | the expanded value |

floatValue
public float floatValue ()
Returns the value of this Integer as a float
 after a widening primitive conversion.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| float | the numeric value represented by this object after conversion
          to type float. | 
getInteger
public static Integer getInteger (String nm)
Determines the integer value of the system property with the specified name.
The first argument is treated as the name of a system
 property.  System properties are accessible through the System.getProperty(java.lang.String) method. The
 string value of this property is then interpreted as an integer
 value using the grammar supported by decode and
 an Integer object representing this value is returned.
 
If there is no property with the specified name, if the
 specified name is empty or null, or if the property
 does not have the correct numeric format, then null is
 returned.
 
In other words, this method returns an Integer
 object equal to the value of:
 
  getInteger(nm, null)
 
    | Parameters | |
|---|---|
| nm | String: property name. | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| Integer | the Integervalue of the property. | 
| Throws | |
|---|---|
| SecurityException | for the same reasons as System.getProperty | 
getInteger
public static Integer getInteger (String nm, Integer val)
Returns the integer value of the system property with the
 specified name.  The first argument is treated as the name of a
 system property.  System properties are accessible through the
 System.getProperty(java.lang.String) method.
 The string value of this property is then interpreted as an
 integer value, as per the decode method,
 and an Integer object representing this value is
 returned; in summary:
 
- If the property value begins with the two ASCII characters
         0xor the ASCII character#, not followed by a minus sign, then the rest of it is parsed as a hexadecimal integer exactly as by the methodvalueOf(java.lang.String, int)with radix 16.
- If the property value begins with the ASCII character
     0followed by another character, it is parsed as an octal integer exactly as by the methodvalueOf(java.lang.String, int)with radix 8.
- Otherwise, the property value is parsed as a decimal integer
 exactly as by the method valueOf(java.lang.String, int)with radix 10.
The second argument is the default value. The default value is
 returned if there is no property of the specified name, if the
 property does not have the correct numeric format, or if the
 specified name is empty or null.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| nm | String: property name. | 
| val | Integer: default value. | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| Integer | the Integervalue of the property. | 
| Throws | |
|---|---|
| SecurityException | for the same reasons as System.getProperty | 
getInteger
public static Integer getInteger (String nm, int val)
Determines the integer value of the system property with the specified name.
The first argument is treated as the name of a system
 property.  System properties are accessible through the System.getProperty(java.lang.String) method. The
 string value of this property is then interpreted as an integer
 value using the grammar supported by decode and
 an Integer object representing this value is returned.
 
The second argument is the default value. An Integer object
 that represents the value of the second argument is returned if there
 is no property of the specified name, if the property does not have
 the correct numeric format, or if the specified name is empty or
 null.
 
In other words, this method returns an Integer object
 equal to the value of:
 
  getInteger(nm, Integer.valueOf(val))
 
 but in practice it may be implemented in a manner such as:
 to avoid the unnecessary allocation of an
Integer
 object when the default value is not needed.
    | Parameters | |
|---|---|
| nm | String: property name. | 
| val | int: default value. | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| Integer | the Integervalue of the property. |

 representation of the specified int value left by the
 specified number of bits.  (Bits shifted out of the left hand, or
 high-order, side reenter on the right, or low-order.)
 
Note that left rotation with a negative distance is equivalent to
 right rotation: rotateLeft(val, -distance) == rotateRight(val,
 distance).  Note also that rotation by any multiple of 32 is a
 no-op, so all but the last five bits of the rotation distance can be
 ignored, even if the distance is negative: rotateLeft(val,
 distance) == rotateLeft(val, distance & 0x1F).

 no-op, so all but the last five bits of the rotation distance can be
 ignored, even if the distance is negative: rotateRight(val,
 distance) == rotateRight(val, distance & 0x1F).

 in binary (base 2) with no extra leading 0s.
 
The value of the argument can be recovered from the returned
 string s by calling Integer.parseUnsignedInt(s, 2).
 
If the unsigned magnitude is zero, it is represented by a
 single zero character '0' ('\u0030');

 if the argument is negative; otherwise, it is equal to the
 argument.  This value is converted to a string of ASCII digits
 in hexadecimal (base 16) with no extra leading
 0s.
 
The value of the argument can be recovered from the returned
 string s by calling Integer.parseUnsignedInt(s, 16).
 
If the unsigned magnitude is zero, it is represented by a
 single zero character '0' ('\u0030');
 otherwise, the first character of the representation of the
 unsigned magnitude will not be the zero character. The
 following characters are used as hexadecimal digits:
 
  0123456789abcdef
 
 These are the characters '\u0030' through
 '\u0039' and '\u0061' through
 '\u0066'. If uppercase letters are
 desired, the String.toUpperCase() method may
 be called on the result:
 
  Integer.toHexString(n).toUpperCase()
 
    
    | Parameters | |
|---|---|

| String | the string representation of the unsigned integer value represented by the argument in hexadecimal (base 16). | 
toOctalString
public static String toOctalString (int i)
Returns a string representation of the integer argument as an unsigned integer in base 8.
The unsigned integer value is the argument plus 232
 if the argument is negative; otherwise, it is equal to the
 argument.  This value is converted to a string of ASCII digits
 in octal (base 8) with no extra leading 0s.
 
The value of the argument can be recovered from the returned
 string s by calling Integer.parseUnsignedInt(s, 8).
 
If the unsigned magnitude is zero, it is represented by a

 otherwise, the first character of the representation of the
 unsigned magnitude will not be the zero character. The
 following characters are used as octal digits:
 
 01234567

toString
public String toString ()
Returns a String object representing this
 Integer's value. The value is converted to signed
 decimal representation and returned as a string, exactly as if
 the integer value were given as an argument to the toString(int) method.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| String | a string representation of the value of this object in base 10. | 
toString
public static String toString (int i)
Returns a String object representing the
 specified integer. The argument is converted to signed decimal
 representation and returned as a string, exactly as if the
 argument and radix 10 were given as arguments to the toString(int, int) method.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| i | int: an integer to be converted. | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| String | a string representation of the argument in base 10. | 
toString
public static String toString (int i, int radix)
Returns a string representation of the first argument in the radix specified by the second argument.
If the radix is smaller than Character.MIN_RADIX
 or larger than Character.MAX_RADIX, then the radix
 10 is used instead.
 
If the first argument is negative, the first element of the
 result is the ASCII minus character '-'
 ('\u002D'). If the first argument is not
 negative, no sign character appears in the result.
 
The remaining characters of the result represent the magnitude
 of the first argument. If the magnitude is zero, it is
 represented by a single zero character '0'
 ('\u0030'); otherwise, the first character of
 the representation of the magnitude will not be the zero
 character.  The following ASCII characters are used as digits:
 
   0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
 
 These are '\u0030' through
 '\u0039' and '\u0061' through
 '\u007A'. If radix is
 N, then the first N of these characters
 are used as radix-N digits in the order shown. Thus,
 the digits for hexadecimal (radix 16) are
 0123456789abcdef. If uppercase letters are
 desired, the String.toUpperCase() method may
 be called on the result:
 
  Integer.toString(n, 16).toUpperCase()
 
    | Parameters | |
|---|---|
| i | int: an integer to be converted to a string. | 
| radix | int: the radix to use in the string representation. | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| String | a string representation of the argument in the specified radix. |

toUnsignedLong
public static long toUnsignedLong (int x)
Converts the argument to a long by an unsigned
 conversion.  In an unsigned conversion to a long, the
 high-order 32 bits of the long are zero and the
 low-order 32 bits are equal to the bits of the integer
 argument.
 Consequently, zero and positive int values are mapped
 to a numerically equal long value and negative int values are mapped to a long value equal to the
 input plus 232.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| x | int: the value to convert to an unsignedlong | 
| Returns | |

toUnsignedString
public static String toUnsignedString (int i, int radix)
Returns a string representation of the first argument as an unsigned integer value in the radix specified by the second argument.
If the radix is smaller than Character.MIN_RADIX
 or larger than Character.MAX_RADIX, then the radix
 10 is used instead.
 
Note that since the first argument is treated as an unsigned value, no leading sign character is printed.
If the magnitude is zero, it is represented by a single zero
 character '0' ('\u0030'); otherwise,
 the first character of the representation of the magnitude will
 not be the zero character.
 
The behavior of radixes and the characters used as digits
 are the same as toString.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| i | int: an integer to be converted to an unsigned string. | 
| radix | int: the radix to use in the string representation. | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| String | an unsigned string representation of the argument in the specified radix. |

toUnsignedString
public static String toUnsignedString (int i)
Returns a string representation of the argument as an unsigned
 decimal value.
 The argument is converted to unsigned decimal representation
 and returned as a string exactly as if the argument and radix
 10 were given as arguments to the toUnsignedString(int, int) method.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| i | int: an integer to be converted to an unsigned string. | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| String | an unsigned string representation of the argument. |

valueOf
public static Integer valueOf (String s)
Returns an Integer object holding the
 value of the specified String. The argument is
 interpreted as representing a signed decimal integer, exactly
 as if the argument were given to the parseInt(java.lang.String) method. The result is an
 Integer object that represents the integer value
 specified by the string.
 
In other words, this method returns an Integer
 object equal to the value of:
 
  Integer.valueOf(Integer.parseInt(s))
 
    | Parameters | |
|---|---|
| s | String: the string to be parsed. | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| Integer | an Integerobject holding the value
             represented by the string argument. | 
| Throws | |
|---|---|
| NumberFormatException | if the string cannot be parsed as an integer. | 
valueOf
public static Integer valueOf (String s, int radix)
Returns an Integer object holding the value
 extracted from the specified String when parsed
 with the radix given by the second argument. The first argument
 is interpreted as representing a signed integer in the radix
 specified by the second argument, exactly as if the arguments
 were given to the parseInt(java.lang.String, int)
 method. The result is an Integer object that
 represents the integer value specified by the string.
 
In other words, this method returns an Integer
 object equal to the value of:
 
  Integer.valueOf(Integer.parseInt(s, radix))
 
    | Parameters | |
|---|---|
| s | String: the string to be parsed. | 
| radix | int: the radix to be used in interpretings | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| Integer | an Integerobject holding the value
             represented by the string argument in the specified
             radix. | 
| Throws | |
|---|---|
| NumberFormatException | if the Stringdoes not contain a parsableint. | 
valueOf
public static Integer valueOf (int i)
Returns an Integer instance representing the specified
 int value.  If a new Integer instance is not
 required, this method should generally be used in preference to
 the constructor Integer(int), as this method is likely
 to yield significantly better space and time performance by
 caching frequently requested values.
 This method will always cache values in the range -128 to 127,
 inclusive, and may cache other values outside of this range.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| i | int: anintvalue. | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| Integer | an Integerinstance representingi. |
