Example 1

public class NumberShortValueExample1 {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
	    Number num1 = -57225.65650;
	    //Returns the value of this Number as a short type
	    System.out.println("Output Value = " + num1.shortValue());	    
	    Integer obj2 = 225090;
	    //Returns the value of this Integer as a short type
	    short s2 = obj2.shortValue();
	    System.out.println("Output Value = " + s2);	    
	    }
}

Output:

Output Value = 8311
Output Value = 28482

Example 2

public class NumberShortValueExample2 {
	public static void main(String[] args) {	
		Byte B = -92;
            short s = B.shortValue();
            System.out.println(s);      
            Short S = 53;
            s = S.shortValue();
            System.out.println(s);    
            Float F = (float) 23454.56;
            s = F.shortValue();
            System.out.println(s);  
            Double D = 521789879.567868;
            s = D.shortValue();
            System.out.println(s);  
            }
}

Example 3

import java.util.Scanner;
public class NumberShortValueExample3 {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		System.out.print("Enter the desired Input: ");
		Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
		//Pass a Value from console
            Integer object = scan.nextInt();
            short value = object.shortValue();
            System.out.println("Output is = " + value);
            scan.close();
	      }
}

Output:

Enter the desired Input: -12345ABCD
