In Java, we have primitive numeric data types for representing short, byte, int, long, float and double floating point type. These numeric data types allow us to represent different integers and real numbers based on their range, as each specific data type has its lower and upper bounds.
Below are the 6 primitive numeric data types
byte: Range -128 to 127 (Size 1 byte) short: Range -32,768 to 32,767 (Size 2 bytes) int: Range -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647 (Size 4 bytes) long: Range -9,223,372,036,854,775,808 to 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 (8 bytes) float: Range 6 to 7 decimal digits for Fractional Numbers (Size 4 bytes) double: Range 15 decimal digits for Fractional Numbers (Size 8 bytes)
In this article, we will see how to check the type of a number by using Java programming language. We will use switch case to implement this application.
Suppose we have taken an integer type of value i.e. 222222 then it must show “number entered is a valid integer”.
Suppose we have taken a double type of value i.e 120.0 then it must show “number entered is a valid double”.
Suppose we have taken a float type of value i.e 2.1 then it must show “number entered is a valid float”.
Suppose we have taken a byte type of value i.e 23 then it must show “number entered is a valid byte”.
Suppose we have taken a short type of value i.e 32,765 then it must show “number entered is a valid short”.
Suppose we have taken a long type of value i.e 222222222222 then it must show “number entered is a valid long”.
To check the type of number we will check its datatype. If the datatype matches then the result will be positive otherwise negative. To check it we have a function called hasNextData_Type.
The following is the syntax for checking "integer data type":
hasNextInt()
Following is the syntax to check “double datatype” −
hasNextDouble()
The following is the syntax for checking "floating point data type":
hasNextFloat()
Following is the syntax to check “byte datatype” −
hasNextByte()
The following is the syntax for checking "short data type" -
hasNextShort()
Following is the syntax to check “long datatype” −
hasNextLong()
Step-1− Ask the user to enter their choice.
Step 2- Display the menu.
Step-3− Ask the user to enter data.
Step 4- Use switch case statements to make selections and perform operations.
Step-5- Print the results.
Let’s see the program to understand it clearly.
