The Integer class provides an object wrapper for an int value. This is useful when you need to treat an int value as an object. For example, there are a number of utility methods that take a reference to an Object as one of their arguments. You cannot specify an int value for one of these arguments, but you can provide a reference to an Integer object that encapsulates the int value. Also, as of JDK 1.1, the Integer class is necessary to support the Reflection API and class literals.
The Integer class also provides a number of utility methods for converting int values to other primitive types and for converting int values to strings and vice versa.

The Class object that represents the type int. It is always true that Integer.TYPE == int.class.
The int value to be encapsulated by this object.
Creates an Integer object with the specified int value.
The string to be made into an Integer object.
If the sequence of characters in the given String does not form a valid int literal.
Constructs an Integer object with the value specified by the given string. The string should consist of one or more digit characters. The digit characters can be preceded by a single `-' character. If the string contains any other characters, the constructor throws a NumberFormatException.
New as of JDK 1.1
A String representation of the value to be encapsulated by an Integer object. If the string begins with # or 0x, it is a radix 16 representation of the value. If the string begins with 0, it is a radix 8 representation of the value. Otherwise, it is assumed to be a radix 10 representation of the value.
An Integer object that encapsulates the given value.
If the String contains any nondigit characters other than a leading minus sign or the value represented by the String is less than Integer.MIN_VALUE or greater than Integer.MAX_VALUE.
This method returns an Integer object that encapsulates the given value.
The name of a system property.
The value of the system property as an Integer object, or an Integer object with the value 0 if the named property does not exist or cannot be parsed.
This method retrieves the value of the named system property and returns it as an Integer object. The method obtains the value of the system property as a String using System.getProperty().
If the value of the property begins with 0x or # and is not followed by a minus sign, the rest of the value is parsed as a hexadecimal integer. If the value begins with 0, it's parsed as an octal integer; otherwise it's parsed as a decimal integer.

This method retrieves the value of the named system property and returns it as an Integer object. The method obtains the value of the system property as a String using System.getProperty().
If the value of the property begins with 0x or # and is not followed by a minus sign, the rest of the value is parsed as a hexadecimal integer. If the value begins with 0, it's parsed as an octal integer; otherwise it's parsed as a decimal integer.

public static int parseInt(String s) throws NumberFormatException
The String to be converted to an int value.
The numeric value of the integer represented by the String object.
If the String does not contain a valid representation of an integer.
This method returns the numeric value of the integer represented by the contents of the given String object. The String must contain only decimal digits, except that the first character may be a minus sign.
public static int parseInt(String s, int radix) throws NumberFormatException
The String to be converted to an int value.
The radix used in interpreting the characters in the String as digits. This value must be in the range Character.MIN_RADIX to Character.MAX_RADIX. If radix is in the range 2 through 10, only characters for which the Character.isDigit() method returns true are considered to be valid digits. If radix is in the range 11 through 36, characters in the ranges `A' through `Z' and `a' through `z' may be considered valid digits.
The numeric value of the integer represented by the String object in the specified radix.
If the String does not contain a valid representation of an integer, or radix is not in the appropriate range.
This method returns the numeric value of the integer represented by the contents of the given String object in the specified radix. The String must contain only valid digits of the specified radix, except that the first character may be a minus sign. The digits are parsed in the specified radix to produce the numeric value.
The int value to be converted to a string.
A string that contains the binary representation of the given value.
This method returns a String object that contains the representation of the given value as an unsigned binary number. To convert the given value to an unsigned quantity, the method simply uses the value as if it were not negative. In other words, if the given value is negative, the method adds 2^32 to it. Otherwise the value is used as it is.
The string returned by this method contains a sequence of one or more `0' and `1' characters. The method returns "0" if its argument is 0. Otherwise, the string returned by this method begins with `1'.
The int value to be converted to a string.
A string that contains the hexadecimal representation of the given value.
This method returns a String object that contains the representation of the given value as an unsigned hexadecimal number. To convert the given value to an unsigned quantity, the method simply uses the value as if it were not negative. In other words, if the given value is negative, the method adds 2^32 to it. Otherwise the value is used as it is.
The string returned by this method contains a sequence of one or more of the characters `0', `1', `2', `3', `4', `5', `6', `7', `8', `9', `a', `b', `c', `d', `e', and `f'. The method returns "0" if its argument is 0. Otherwise, the string returned by this method does not begin with `0'.
To produce a string that contains upper- instead of lowercase letters, use the String.toUpperCase() method.
The int value to be converted to a string.
A string that contains the octal representation of the given value.
This method returns a String object that contains a representation of the given value as an unsigned octal number. To convert the given value to an unsigned quantity, the method simply uses the value as if it were not negative. In other words, if the given value is negative, the method adds 2^32 to it. Otherwise the value is used as it is.
The string returned by this method contains a sequence of one or more of the characters `0', `1', `2', `3', `4', `5', `6', and `7'. The method returns "0" if its argument is 0. Otherwise, the string returned by this method does not begin with `0'.
The int value to be converted to a string.
The string representation of the given value.
This method returns a String object that contains the decimal representation of the given value.
This method returns a string that begins with `-' if the given value is negative. The rest of the string is a sequence of one or more of the characters `0', `1', `2', `3', `4', `5', `6', `7', `8', and `9'. This method returns "0" if its argument is 0. Otherwise, the string returned by this method does not begin with "0" or "-0".
The int value to be converted to a string.
The radix used in converting the value to a string. This value must be in the range Character.MIN_RADIX to Character.MAX_RADIX.
The string representation of the given value in the specified radix.
This method returns a String object that contains the representation of the given value in the specified radix.
This method returns a string that begins with `-' if the given value is negative. The rest of the string is a sequence of one or more characters that represent the magnitude of the given value. The characters that can appear in the sequence are determined by the value of radix. If N is the value of radix, the first N characters on the following line can appear in the sequence:
0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
The method does not verify that radix is in the proper range. If radix is less than Character.MIN_RADIX or greater than Character.MAX_RADIX, the value 10 is used instead of the given value.
This method returns "0" if its argument is 0. Otherwise, the string returned by this method does not begin with "0" or "-0".
public static Integer valueOf(String s) throws NumberFormatException
The string to be made into an Integer object.
The Integer object constructed from the string.
If the String does not contain a valid representation of an integer.
Constructs an Integer object with the value specified by the given string. The string should consist of one or more digit characters. The digit characters can be preceded by a single `-' character. If the string contains any other characters, the method throws a NumberFormatException.
