# byte Java Keyword

byte is a Java primitive type.

A byte can store an integer value in the range [-128, 127].

## Examples

      byte b = 124;

## Remarks

- The Byte class is a wrapper class for the byte primitive type. It defines MIN_VALUE and MAX_VALUE constants representing the range of values for this type.

- All integer literals in Java are 32-bit int values unless the value is followed by l or L as in 235L, indicating the value should be interpreted as a long.
