Short

Constant for the maximum short value, 2¹⁵-1.

Constant for the minimum short value, -2¹⁵.

Constant for the number of bits needed to represent a short in two's complement form.

The Class object that represents the primitive type short.

Constructs a new Short from the specified string.

Constructs a new Short with the specified primitive short value.

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

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

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

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

Compares this instance with the specified object and indicates if they are equal. In order to be equal, object must be an instance of Short and have the same short 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 short value using the specified radix. The ASCII character - ('-') is recognized as the minus sign.

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

Reverses the bytes of the specified short.

Gets the primitive value of this short.

Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of the specified short value with radix 10.

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 short value.

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

Returns a Short instance for the specified short value.

If it is not necessary to get a new Short 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.
