Java is a statically typed language,
requiring you to declare a
variables data type before using
it. This helps prevent errors during
compilation. Different data types
in Java have varying sizes and
ranges.
For example, a short can hold
values from -32,768 to 32,767,
while a long can handle a wider
range of values, from
-9,223,372,036,854,775,808 to
9,223,372,036,854,775,807.
Choosing between int and long
depends on the range of values
your program needs to store.
