The java.lang.Short.byteValue() method of Short class is a built in method in Java which is used to return the value of the Short object as a byte.
Syntax
ShortObject.byteValue()
Return Value: It return the value of ShortObject as byte.
Below is the implementation of byteValue() method in Java:
Example 1:
// Java code to demonstrate// Short byteValue() method  class GFG {    public static void main(String[] args)    {          // Short value        Short a = 17;          // wrapping the Short value        // in the wrapper class Short        Short b = new Short(a);          // byteValue of the Short Object        byte output = b.byteValue();          // printing the output        System.out.println("Byte value of "                           + b + " is : " + output);    }} |
Output:
Byte value of 17 is : 17
Example 2:
// Java code to demonstrate// Short byteValue() method  class GFG {    public static void main(String[] args)    {          String value = "17";          // wrapping the Short value        // in the wrapper class Short        Short b = new Short(value);          // byteValue of the Short Object        byte output = b.byteValue();          // printing the output        System.out.println("Byte value of "                           + b + " is : " + output);    }} |
Output:
Byte value of 17 is : 17
