In this tutorial we will learn how to convert a short type data to byte type.
This program will take a short type value from console and provides a conversion to byte type. The line short myshort = Short.parseShort(buffreader.readLine()); reads the short type data from console. The line byte mybyte = (byte)(myshort); is used to convert the myshort short type data to mybyte byte type data.
import java.io.*;
class shorttobyte {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
// Reads the value from console
BufferedReader buffreader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
System.out.println("---Data Conversion from short type to byte type---");
System.out.println("Enter short type value: ");
// Read short type data
short myshort = Short.parseShort(buffreader.readLine());
// Convert short type data to byte type
byte mybyte = (byte) (myshort);
System.out.println("Converted value from short type to byte type is : " + mybyte);
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(" Error " + e);
}
}
}
