Class Integer
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.
This is a value-based class; programmers should treat instances that are equal 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 as highestOneBit and numberOfTrailingZeros) are based on material from Henry S. Warren, Jr.'s Hacker's Delight, (Addison Wesley, 2002) and Hacker's Delight, Second Edition, (Pearson Education, 2013).

Method Details
-
toString
Returns a string representation of the first argument in the radix specified by the second argument.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. See Also: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()
-
toUnsignedString
Returns a string representation of the first argument as an unsigned integer value in the radix specified by the second argument.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. Since: 1.8 See Also: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.
-
toHexString
Returns a string representation of the integer argument as an unsigned integer in base 16.API Note: The HexFormat class provides formatting and parsing of byte arrays and primitives to return a string or adding to an Appendable. 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: i - an integer to be converted to a string. Returns: the string representation of the unsigned integer value represented by the argument in hexadecimal (base 16). Since: 1.0.2 See Also: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 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()
-
toOctalString
Returns a string representation of the integer argument as an unsigned integer in base 8.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). Since: 1.0.2 See Also: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 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'.
-
toBinaryString
Returns a string representation of the integer argument as an unsigned integer in base 2.Parameters: i - an integer to be converted to a string. Returns: the string representation of the unsigned integer value represented by the argument in binary (base 2). Since: 1.0.2 See Also: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 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'); otherwise, the first character of the representation of the unsigned magnitude will not be the zero character. The characters '0' ('\u0030') and '1' ('\u0031') are used as binary digits.

Returns: true if the objects are the same; false otherwise. See Also: -
getInteger
Determines the integer value of the system property with the specified name.Parameters: nm - property name. Returns: the Integer value of the property. See Also: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.

In other words, this method returns an Integer object equal to the value of: getInteger(nm, null)
-
getInteger
Determines the integer value of the system property with the specified name.Parameters: nm - property name. val - default value. Returns: the Integer value of the property. See Also: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: Integer result = getInteger(nm, null); return (result == null) ? Integer.valueOf(val) : result; to avoid the unnecessary allocation of an Integer object when the default value is not needed.
-
getInteger
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:Parameters: nm - property name. val - default value. Returns: the Integer value of the property. See Also:- If the property value begins with the two ASCII characters 0x 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 method valueOf(java.lang.String, int) with radix 16.
- If the property value begins with the ASCII character 0 followed by another character, it is parsed as an octal integer exactly as by the method valueOf(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.
-

Returns: an Integer object holding the int value represented by nm Throws: NumberFormatException - if the String does not contain a parsable integer. See Also: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.
-
compareTo
Compares two Integer objects numerically.Specified by: compareTo in interface Comparable<Integer> Parameters: anotherInteger - the Integer to be compared. Returns: the value 0 if this Integer is equal to the argument Integer; a value less than 0 if this Integer is numerically less than the argument Integer; and a value greater than 0 if this Integer is numerically greater than the argument Integer (signed comparison).

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 - the value to convert to an unsigned long Returns: the argument converted to long by an unsigned conversion Since: 1.8 -
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.Parameters: dividend - the value to be divided divisor - the value doing the dividing Returns: the unsigned quotient of the first argument divided by the second argument Since: 1.8 See Also: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.

remainderUnsigned
public static int remainderUnsigned(int dividend, int divisor)Returns the unsigned remainder from dividing the first argument by the second where each argument and the result is interpreted as an unsigned value.Parameters: dividend - the value to be divided divisor - the value doing the dividing Returns: the unsigned remainder of the first argument divided by the second argument Since: 1.8 See Also: -
highestOneBit
public static int highestOneBit(int i)Returns an int value with at most a single one-bit, in the position of the highest-order ("leftmost") one-bit in the specified int value. Returns zero if the specified value has no one-bits in its two's complement binary representation, that is, if it is equal to zero.Parameters: i - the value whose highest one bit is to be computed Returns: an int value with a single one-bit, in the position of the highest-order one-bit in the specified value, or zero if the specified value is itself equal to zero.

public static int lowestOneBit(int i)Returns an int value with at most a single one-bit, in the position of the lowest-order ("rightmost") one-bit in the specified int value. Returns zero if the specified value has no one-bits in its two's complement binary representation, that is, if it is equal to zero.Parameters: i - the value whose lowest one bit is to be computed Returns: an int value with a single one-bit, in the position of the lowest-order one-bit in the specified value, or zero if the specified value is itself equal to zero. Since: 1.5 -
numberOfLeadingZeros
public static int numberOfLeadingZeros(int i)Returns the number of zero bits preceding the highest-order ("leftmost") one-bit in the two's complement binary representation of the specified int value. Returns 32 if the specified value has no one-bits in its two's complement representation, in other words if it is equal to zero.Parameters: i - the value whose number of leading zeros is to be computed Returns: the number of zero bits preceding the highest-order ("leftmost") one-bit in the two's complement binary representation of the specified int value, or 32 if the value is equal to zero. Since: 1.5Note that this method is closely related to the logarithm base 2. For all positive int values x:
- floor(log2(x)) = 31 - numberOfLeadingZeros(x)
- ceil(log2(x)) = 32 - numberOfLeadingZeros(x - 1)

numberOfTrailingZeros
public static int numberOfTrailingZeros(int i)Returns the number of zero bits following the lowest-order ("rightmost") one-bit in the two's complement binary representation of the specified int value. Returns 32 if the specified value has no one-bits in its two's complement representation, in other words if it is equal to zero.Parameters: i - the value whose number of trailing zeros is to be computed Returns: the number of zero bits following the lowest-order ("rightmost") one-bit in the two's complement binary representation of the specified int value, or 32 if the value is equal to zero.

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 - the value whose bits are to be counted Returns: the number of one-bits in the two's complement binary representation of the specified int value. Since: 1.5 -
rotateLeft
public static int rotateLeft(int i, int distance)Returns the value obtained by rotating the two's complement binary 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.)Parameters: i - the value whose bits are to be rotated left distance - the number of bit positions to rotate left Returns: the value obtained by rotating the two's complement binary representation of the specified int value left by the specified number of bits. Since: 1.5Note 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).

Since: 1.5Note 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).

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.API Note: Consider the simple case of compressing the digits of a hexadecimal value: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.
Copy // Compressing drink to food compress(0xCAFEBABE, 0xFF00FFF0) == 0xCABABStarting from the least significant hexadecimal digit at position 0 from the right, the mask 0xFF00FFF0 selects hexadecimal digits at positions 1, 2, 3, 6 and 7 of 0xCAFEBABE. The selected digits occur in the resulting compressed value contiguously from digit position 0 in the same order.The following identities all return true and are helpful to understand the behaviour of compress:
Copy // 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, Second Edition, section 7.7) can be implemented as follows:
Copy 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) == 0xCABABFEEParameters: i - the value whose bits are to be compressed mask - the bit mask Returns: the compressed value Since: 19 See Also: -
expand
public static int expand(int i, int mask)Returns the value obtained by expanding the bits of the specified int value, i, in accordance with the specified bit mask.API Note: Consider the simple case of expanding the digits of a hexadecimal value: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.
Copy expand(0x0000CABAB, 0xFF00FFF0) == 0xCA00BAB0Starting from the least significant hexadecimal digit at position 0 from the right, the mask 0xFF00FFF0 selects the first five hexadecimal digits of 0x0000CABAB. The selected digits occur in the resulting expanded value in order at positions 1, 2, 3, 6, and 7.The following identities all return true and are helpful to understand the behaviour of expand:
Copy // 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 n in a int value can be implemented as follows:
Copy 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) == 7Parameters: i - the value whose bits are to be expanded mask - the bit mask Returns: the expanded value Since: 19 See Also: -
