TheInteger class is thewrapper class for values of the primitive typeint. An object of typeInteger contains a single field whose type isint.

In addition, this class provides several methods for converting anint to aString and aString to anint, as well as other constants and methods useful when dealing with anint.

This is avalue-based class; programmers should treat instances that areequal as interchangeable and should not use instances for synchronization, or unpredictable behavior may occur. For example, in a future release, synchronization may fail.

Implementation note: The implementations of the "bit twiddling" methods (such ashighestOneBit andnumberOfTrailingZeros) are based on material from Henry S. Warren, Jr.'sHacker's Delight, (Addison Wesley, 2002) andHacker's Delight, Second Edition, (Pearson Education, 2013).

  • Method Details

    • 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 thanCharacter.MIN_RADIX or larger thanCharacter.MAX_RADIX, then the radix10 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'. Ifradix isN, then the firstN of these characters are used as radix-N digits in the order shown. Thus, the digits for hexadecimal (radix 16) are0123456789abcdef. If uppercase letters are desired, theString.toUpperCase() method may be called on the result:
      Integer.toString(n, 16).toUpperCase()

      Parameters:
      i - an integer to be converted to a string.
      radix - the radix to use in the string representation.
      Returns:
      a string representation of the argument in the specified radix.

    • 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 thanCharacter.MIN_RADIX or larger thanCharacter.MAX_RADIX, then the radix10 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 astoString.

      Parameters:
      i - an integer to be converted to an unsigned string.
      radix - the radix to use in the string representation.
      Returns:
      an unsigned string representation of the argument in the specified radix.

    • toHexString

      public static String toHexString(int i)
      Returns a string representation of the integer argument as an unsigned integer in base 16.

      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 hexadecimal (base 16) with no extra leading0s.

      The value of the argument can be recovered from the returned strings by callingInteger.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, theString.toUpperCase() method may be called on the result:
      Integer.toHexString(n).toUpperCase()

      API Note:
      TheHexFormat class provides formatting and parsing of byte arrays and primitives to return a string or adding to anAppendable.HexFormat formats and parses uppercase or lowercase hexadecimal characters, with leading zeros and for byte arrays includes for each byte a delimiter, prefix, and suffix.
      Parameters:

      The value of the argument can be recovered from the returned strings by callingInteger.parseUnsignedInt(s, 8).

      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 octal digits:

      01234567
      These are the characters'\u0030' through'\u0037'.

      Parameters:
      i - an integer to be converted to a string.
      Returns:
      the string representation of the unsigned integer value represented by the argument in octal (base 8).

If a newInteger instance is not required, this method should generally be used in preference to the constructorInteger(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 - anint value.
      Returns:
      anInteger instance representingi.

    • 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 theSystem.getProperty(java.lang.String) method. The string value of this property is then interpreted as an integer value using the grammar supported bydecode and anInteger object representing this value is returned.

      If there is no property with the specified name, if the specified name is empty ornull, or if the property does not have the correct numeric format, thennull is returned.

      In other words, this method returns anInteger object equal to the value of:

      getInteger(nm, null)

      Parameters:
      nm - property name.
      Returns:
      theInteger value of the property.
      See Also:
    • 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 theSystem.getProperty(java.lang.String) method. The string value of this property is then interpreted as an integer value using the grammar supported bydecode and anInteger object representing this value is returned.

      The second argument is the default value. AnInteger 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 ornull.

      In other words, this method returns anInteger object equal to the value of:

      getInteger(nm, Integer.valueOf(val))
      but in practice it may be implemented in a manner such as:
       Integer result = getInteger(nm, null); return (result == null) ? Integer.valueOf(val) : result;
      to avoid the unnecessary allocation of anInteger object when the default value is not needed.

      Parameters:
      nm - property name.
      val - default value.
      Returns:
      theInteger value of the property.
      See Also:
    • 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 theSystem.getProperty(java.lang.String) method. The string value of this property is then interpreted as an integer value, as per thedecode method, and anInteger object representing this value is returned; in summary:
      • If the property value begins with the two ASCII characters0x or 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 character0 followed 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 methodvalueOf(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 ornull.

      Parameters:
      nm - property name.
      val - default value.
      Returns:
      theInteger value of the property.

      Signopt DecimalNumeral
      Signopt0xHexDigits
      Signopt0XHexDigits
      Signopt#HexDigits
      Signopt0OctalDigits
      Sign:
      -
      +
      DecimalNumeral,HexDigits, andOctalDigits are as defined in section3.10.1 ofThe 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 aNumberFormatException will be thrown. The result is negated if first character of the specified String is the minus sign. No whitespace characters are permitted in theString.

      Parameters:
      nm - theString to decode.
      Returns:
      anInteger object holding theint value represented bynm
      Throws:
      NumberFormatException - if theString does not contain a parsable integer.

      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).

      Parameters:
      i - the value whose bits are to be rotated left
      distance - the number of bit positions to rotate left

      Note that right rotation with a negative distance is equivalent to left rotation:rotateRight(val, -distance) == rotateLeft(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:rotateRight(val, distance) == rotateRight(val, distance & 0x1F).

      Parameters:
      i - the value whose bits are to be rotated right

    • compress

      public static int compress(int i, int mask)
      Returns the value obtained by compressing the bits of the specifiedint value,i, in accordance with the specified bit mask.

      For each one-bit valuemb of the mask, from least significant to most significant, the bit value ofi at the same bit location asmb 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:
      // Compressing drink to foodcompress(0xCAFEBABE, 0xFF00FFF0) == 0xCABAB
      Starting from the least significant hexadecimal digit at position 0 from the right, the mask0xFF00FFF0 selects 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 returntrue and are helpful to understand the behaviour ofcompress:

      // Returns 1 if the bit at position n is onecompress(x, 1 << n) == (x >> n & 1)// Logical shift rightcompress(x, -1 << n) == x >>> n// Any bits not covered by the mask are ignoredcompress(x, m) == compress(x & m, m)// Compressing a value by itselfcompress(m, m) == (m == -1 || m == 0) ? m : (1 << bitCount(m)) - 1// Expanding then compressing with the same maskcompress(expand(x, m), m) == x & compress(m, m)

      The Sheep And Goats (SAG) operation (see Hacker's Delight, Second Edition, section 7.7) can be implemented as follows:

      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 goatssag(0xCAFEBABE, 0xFF00FFF0) == 0xCABABFEE

      Parameters:
      i - the value whose bits are to be compressed
      mask - the bit mask
      Returns:
      the compressed value

    • expand

      public static int expand(int i, int mask)
      Returns the value obtained by expanding the bits of the specifiedint value,i, in accordance with the specified bit mask.

      For each one-bit valuemb of the mask, from least significant to most significant, the next contiguous bit value ofi starting at the least significant bit is assigned to the expanded value at the same bit location asmb. 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:
      expand(0x0000CABAB, 0xFF00FFF0) == 0xCA00BAB0
      Starting from the least significant hexadecimal digit at position 0 from the right, the mask0xFF00FFF0 selects 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 returntrue and are helpful to understand the behaviour ofexpand:

      // Logically shift right the bit at position 0expand(x, 1 << n) == (x & 1) << n// Logically shift rightexpand(x, -1 << n) == x << n// Expanding all bits returns the maskexpand(-1, m) == m// Any bits not covered by the mask are ignoredexpand(x, m) == expand(x, m) & m// Compressing then expanding with the same maskexpand(compress(x, m), m) == x & m

      The select operation for determining the position of the one-bit with indexn in aint value can be implemented as follows:

      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 1select(0b10101010_10101010, 0) == 1// The one-bit with index 3 is at bit position 7select(0b10101010_10101010, 3) == 7

      Parameters:
      i - the value whose bits are to be expanded
