Below programs illustrate shortValue() method in Java: 
Program 1:

Java




// Java code to demonstrate
// Float shortValue() method
 
class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
 
        // Float value
        Float a = 17.47f;
 
        // wrapping the Float value
        // in the wrapper class Float
        Float b = new Float(a);
 
        // shortValue of the Float Object
        short output = b.shortValue();
 
        // print shorting the output
        System.out.println("Short value of "
                           + b + " is : " + output);
    }
}


Output: 

Short value of 17.47 is : 17

 

Program 2: 

Java




// Java code to demonstrate
// Float shortValue() method
 
class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
 
        String value = "54.1f";
 
        // wrapping the Float value
        // in the wrapper class Float
        Float b = new Float(value);
 
        // shortValue of the Float Object
        short output = b.shortValue();
 
        // print shorting the output
        System.out.println("Short value of "
                           + b + " is : " + output);
    }
}


Output:
