Program Plan Intro

 Wrapper class methods:

• The static “toString” method converts to a string from a number.
  • The method that accepts number as its argument.
  • It returns a number’s string representation.
  • The “toBinaryString”, “toHexString”, and “toOctalString” accepts integer as argument.
    • It returns string representation of number converted into binary, hexadecimal and octal.
  • The “MAX_VALUE” and “MIN_VALUE” stores maximum and minimum value for a specific data type.
• Hence, the methods used to convert a number from decimal to another system are “toBinaryString”, “toHexString”, and “toOctalString”.

Parse methods:

• The parse methods are used to convert the string to a number.
• The method accepts string as its argument.
• If the user wants to convert the string to integer then the syntax to convert the given string to integer is as follows.
  • int variableName = Integer.parseInt(String stringObject);
