integer
In Visual Basic, a data type that can contain whole numbers ranging from -32,768 to 32,767.
In other languages bigger integers are possible. In Java an ''int'' can range from -2147483648 to 2147483647, and there is even a ''long'' that can range from -9223372036854775808 to 9223372036854775807. In C there is also an int, but its range depends on the CPU.
