Java Integer toUnsignedLong() Method

The toUnsignedLong() is a Java Integer class method which converts the argument to a long by an unsigned conversion. In an unsigned conversion to a long, the high-order 32 bits of the long are zero and the low-order 32 bits are equal to the bits of the integer argument.

Syntax:

Following is the declaration of toUnsignedLong() method:

Parameter:

DataType	Parameter	Description	Required/Optional
int	i	It is a value which is used to convert to an unsigned long.	Required

Returns:

The toUnsignedLong() method returns the argument converted to long by an unsigned conversion.

Exceptions:

Compatibility Version:

Java 1.8 and above

Example 1

public class IntegerToUnsignedLongExample1 {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
	    int x1 = -5;
	    int x2 = 5;
	    int y1 = -6;
	    int y2 = 6;
	    //Performs unsigned operation treating x and y holding unsigned values
	    long ux1 = Integer.toUnsignedLong(x1);
	    long ux2 = Integer.toUnsignedLong(x2);
	    long uy1 = Integer.toUnsignedLong(y1);	 
	    long uy2 = Integer.toUnsignedLong(y2);	    
	    System.out.println("Unsigned x1  = " + ux1);
	    System.out.println("Unsigned x2  = " + ux2);
	    System.out.println("Unsigned y1  = " + uy1);	    
	    System.out.println("Unsigned y2  = " + uy2);
          }
}

Output:

Unsigned x1  = 4294967291
Unsigned x2  = 5
Unsigned y1  = 4294967290
Unsigned y2  = 6

Example 2

import java.util.Scanner;
public class IntegerToUnsignedLongExample2 {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		//Enter user input
		System.out.print("Enter a value to perform unsigned operation: ");
		Scanner s = new Scanner(System.in);
		Integer value = s.nextInt();								
		//Get the toUnsignedLong() method result
		Long result = Integer.toUnsignedLong(value);				
		// print the result
		System.out.println("Output: "+result);
		s.close();
            }
}

Output:

Enter a value to perform unsigned operation: 32435
Output: 32435

Example 3

import java.util.Scanner;
public class IntegerToUnsignedLongExample3 {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		//Enter user input
		System.out.print("Input value to perform unsigned operation: ");
		Scanner s = new Scanner(System.in);
		Integer value = s.nextInt();								
		//Print the result
		System.out.println("Output: "+Integer.toUnsignedLong(value));
		s.close();
            }
}

Output:

Input value to perform unsigned operation: -GSDJD
