Below programs illustrate the Short.shortValue() method:
Program 1:
import java.lang.*;
public class Geeks {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
short svalue = 21 ;
Short sh_obj = new Short(svalue);
short sh_Value = sh_obj.shortValue();
System.out.println( "The short value of the given Short is = "
+ sh_Value);
}
}
|
Output:
The short value of the given Short is = 21
Program 2:
import java.lang.*;
public class Geeks {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
short svalue = - 19 ;
Short sh_obj = new Short(svalue);
short sh_Value = sh_obj.shortValue();
System.out.println( "The short value of the given Short is = "
+ sh_Value);
}
}

The short value of the given Short is = -19
Program 3:
Note: It returns an error message when a decimal value and string is passed as an argument.
import java.lang.*;
public class Geeks {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
short svalue = 9.6 ;
Short sh_obj = new Short(svalue);
short sh_Value = sh_obj.shortValue();
System.out.println( "The short value of the given Short is = "
+ sh_Value);
short svalue2 = "61" ;
Short sh_obj2 = new Short(svalue2);
short sh_Value2 = sh_obj2.shortValue();
System.out.println( "The short value of the given Short is = " +
sh_Value2);
}
}

Output:
prog.java:10: error: incompatible types: possible lossy conversion from double to short
short svalue = 9.6;
