Other primitive data types for integer numbers: short

Type	short
Dimension	16 bit (2 byte)
Domain	the set of integer numbers in the interval [- 215, + 215 - 1] = [- 32768, + 32767]
Operations	+	sum
	-	difference
	*	product
	/	integer division
	%	rest of the integer division
Literals	sequences of digits denoting values of the domain (e.g., 22700)

Example:

short a, b, c;                  // Declaration of variables of type short
a = 11300;                      // Use of literals
b = Short.parseShort("22605");  // Conversion from String to short
c = b % a;                      // Arithmetic expression
