Max and Min values of datatype char

Do you need help with your Java programming?

Click here for instant help with your Java code.

To find out the minimum and maximum values of a char we can use the static variables MIN_VALUE and MAX_VALUE of the Character class.
If we would output the min and max characters themselves it wouldn't be very readable. Therefore we cast the value to an int to display the decimal values instead.

/*
* Main.java
*
* @author www.javadb.com
*/
public class Main {

    /*
     * This method displays the minimum and maximum values of the datatype char.
     */

    public void displayMinAndMaxValuesOfChar() {

        System.out.println((int)Character.MIN_VALUE);
        System.out.println((int)Character.MAX_VALUE);
    }


    /**
     * @param args the command line arguments
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        new Main().displayMinAndMaxValuesOfChar();
    }
}

The code above will output this when executed:
