Byte

The maximum Byte value, 2⁷-1.

The minimum Byte value, -2⁷.

The number of bits needed to represent a Byte value in two's complement form.

The Class object that represents the primitive type byte.

Constructs a new Byte with the specified primitive byte value.

Constructs a new Byte from the specified string.

Gets the primitive value of this byte.

Compares two byte values.

Compares this object to the specified byte object to determine their relative order.

Parses the specified string and returns a Byte instance if the string can be decoded into a single byte value. The string may be an optional minus sign "-" followed by a hexadecimal ("0x..." or "#..."), octal ("0..."), or decimal ("...") representation of a byte.

Returns this object's value as a double. Might involve rounding.

Compares this object with the specified object and indicates if they are equal. In order to be equal, object must be an instance of Byte and have the same byte value as this object.

Returns this object's value as a float. Might involve rounding.

Returns an integer hash code for this object. By contract, any two objects for which equals(Object) returns true must return the same hash code value. This means that subclasses of Object usually override both methods or neither method.

Note that hash values must not change over time unless information used in equals comparisons also changes.

See Writing a correct hashCode method if you intend implementing your own hashCode method.

Returns this object's value as an int. Might involve rounding and/or truncating the value, so it fits into an int.

Returns this object's value as a long. Might involve rounding and/or truncating the value, so it fits into a long.

Parses the specified string as a signed byte value using the specified radix. The ASCII character - ('-') is recognized as the minus sign.

Parses the specified string as a signed decimal byte value. The ASCII character - ('-') is recognized as the minus sign.

Returns this object's value as a short. Might involve rounding and/or truncating the value, so it fits into a short.

Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of the specified byte value.

Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object. Subclasses are encouraged to override this method and provide an implementation that takes into account the object's type and data. The default implementation is equivalent to the following expression:

   getClass().getName() + '@' + Integer.toHexString(hashCode())

See Writing a useful toString method if you intend implementing your own toString method.

Parses the specified string as a signed decimal byte value.

Parses the specified string as a signed byte value using the specified radix.

Returns a Byte instance for the specified byte value.

If it is not necessary to get a new Byte instance, it is recommended to use this method instead of the constructor, since it maintains a cache of instances which may result in better performance.
