Introduction

The java.lang.Long class wraps a value of the primitive type long in an object. An object of type Long contains a single field whose type is long.

Class Declaration

Following is the declaration for java.lang.Long class −

public final class Long
   extends Number
      implements Comparable<Long>

Field

Following are the fields for java.lang.Long class −

  • static long MAX_VALUE − This is a constant holding the maximum value a long can have, 263-1.

  • static long MIN_VALUE − This is a constant holding the minimum value a long can have, -263.

  • static int SIZE − This is the number of bits used to represent a long value in two's complement binary form.

  • static Class<Long> TYPE − This is the class instance representing the primitive type long.

Class constructors

Sr.No. Constructor & Description
1

Long(long value)

This constructs a newly allocated Long object that represents the specified long argument.
2

Long(String s)

This constructs a newly allocated Long object that represents the long value indicated by the String parameter.
