// Number.byteValue() method
public class gfg {
  
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        // Get a number as integer
        Integer x = new Integer(12345786);
  
        // Print bytevalue()
        System.out.println(x.byteValue());
  
        // Get a number as float
        Float y = new Float(9145876f);
  
        // Print bytevalue()
        System.out.println(y.byteValue());
    }
}


Output:

-70
20

Program 2:




// Java program to illustrate the
// Number.byteValue() method
public class gfg {
  
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        // Get a number as integer
        Integer x = new Integer(123);
  
        // Print  bytevalue()
        System.out.println(x.byteValue());
  
        // Get a number as float
        Float y = new Float(76f);
  
        // Print  bytevalue()
        System.out.println(y.byteValue());
