  - toString
```
public static String toString(int i,
              int radix)
```
    Returns a string representation of the first argument in the radix specified by the second argument.
    If the radix is smaller than Character.MIN_RADIX or larger than Character.MAX_RADIX, then the radix 10 is used instead.
    If the first argument is negative, the first element of the result is the ASCII minus character '-' ('\u002D'). If the first argument is not negative, no sign character appears in the result.
    The remaining characters of the result represent the magnitude of the first argument. If the magnitude is zero, it is represented by a single zero character '0' ('\u0030'); otherwise, the first character of the representation of the magnitude will not be the zero character. The following ASCII characters are used as digits:
    0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
    These are '\u0030' through '\u0039' and '\u0061' through '\u007A'. If radix is N, then the first N of these characters are used as radix-N digits in the order shown. Thus, the digits for hexadecimal (radix 16) are 0123456789abcdef. If uppercase letters are desired, the String.toUpperCase() method may be called on the result:
    Integer.toString(n, 16).toUpperCase()
    Parameters:
    i - an integer to be converted to a string.
    radix - the radix to use in the string representation.
    
    Returns:
    a string representation of the argument in the specified radix.

    Character.MAX_RADIX, Character.MIN_RADIX
  - toHexString
```
public static String toHexString(int i)
```
    Returns a string representation of the integer argument as an unsigned integer in base 16.
    The unsigned integer value is the argument plus 2³² if the argument is negative; otherwise, it is equal to the argument. This value is converted to a string of ASCII digits in hexadecimal (base 16) with no extra leading 0s. If the unsigned magnitude is zero, it is represented by a single zero character '0' ('\u0030'); otherwise, the first character of the representation of the unsigned magnitude will not be the zero character. The following characters are used as hexadecimal digits:
    0123456789abcdef
    These are the characters '\u0030' through '\u0039' and '\u0061' through '\u0066'. If uppercase letters are desired, the String.toUpperCase() method may be called on the result:
    Integer.toHexString(n).toUpperCase()
    Parameters:
    i - an integer to be converted to a string.
    
    Returns:
    the string representation of the unsigned integer value represented by the argument in hexadecimal (base 16).

    JDK1.0.2
  - toOctalString
```
public static String toOctalString(int i)
```
    Returns a string representation of the integer argument as an unsigned integer in base 8.
    The unsigned integer value is the argument plus 2³² if the argument is negative; otherwise, it is equal to the argument. This value is converted to a string of ASCII digits in octal (base 8) with no extra leading 0s.
    If the unsigned magnitude is zero, it is represented by a single zero character '0' ('\u0030'); otherwise, the first character of the representation of the unsigned magnitude will not be the zero character. The following characters are used as octal digits:
    01234567
    These are the characters '\u0030' through '\u0037'.
    Parameters:
    i - an integer to be converted to a string.
    
    Returns:
    the string representation of the unsigned integer value represented by the argument in octal (base 8).
    Since:
    
    JDK1.0.2
  - toBinaryString
```
public static String toBinaryString(int i)
```
    Returns a string representation of the integer argument as an unsigned integer in base 2.
    The unsigned integer value is the argument plus 2³² if the argument is negative; otherwise it is equal to the argument. This value is converted to a string of ASCII digits in binary (base 2) with no extra leading 0s. If the unsigned magnitude is zero, it is represented by a single zero character '0' ('\u0030'); otherwise, the first character of the representation of the unsigned magnitude will not be the zero character. The characters '0' ('\u0030') and '1' ('\u0031') are used as binary digits.
    
    Parameters:
    i - an integer to be converted to a string.
    
    Returns:
    the string representation of the unsigned integer value represented by the argument in binary (base 2).

  - toString
```
public static String toString(int i)
```
    Returns a String object representing the specified integer. The argument is converted to signed decimal representation and returned as a string, exactly as if the argument and radix 10 were given as arguments to the toString(int, int) method.
    
    Parameters:
    i - an integer to be converted.
    
    Returns:
    a string representation of the argument in base 10.
  - parseInt
```
public static int parseInt(String s,
           int radix)
                    throws NumberFormatException
```
    Parses the string argument as a signed integer in the radix specified by the second argument. The characters in the string must all be digits of the specified radix (as determined by whether Character.digit(char, int) returns a nonnegative value), except that the first character may be an ASCII minus sign '-' ('\u002D') to indicate a negative value. The resulting integer value is returned.
    An exception of type NumberFormatException is thrown if any of the following situations occurs:
    - The first argument is null or is a string of length zero.
    - The radix is either smaller than Character.MIN_RADIX or larger than Character.MAX_RADIX.
    - Any character of the string is not a digit of the specified radix, except that the first character may be a minus sign '-' ('\u002D') provided that the string is longer than length 1.
    - The value represented by the string is not a value of type int.
    Examples:
    parseInt("0", 10) returns 0 parseInt("473", 10) returns 473 parseInt("-0", 10) returns 0 parseInt("-FF", 16) returns -255 parseInt("1100110", 2) returns 102 parseInt("2147483647", 10) returns 2147483647 parseInt("-2147483648", 10) returns -2147483648 parseInt("2147483648", 10) throws a NumberFormatException parseInt("99", 8) throws a NumberFormatException parseInt("Kona", 10) throws a NumberFormatException parseInt("Kona", 27) returns 411787
    Parameters:
    s - the String containing the integer representation to be parsed
    radix - the radix to be used while parsing s.
    
    Returns:
    the integer represented by the string argument in the specified radix.
    
    Throws:
    
    NumberFormatException - if the String does not contain a parsable int.
  - parseInt
```
public static int parseInt(String s)
                    throws NumberFormatException
```
    Parses the string argument as a signed decimal integer. The characters in the string must all be decimal digits, except that the first character may be an ASCII minus sign '-' ('\u002D') to indicate a negative value. The resulting integer value is returned, exactly as if the argument and the radix 10 were given as arguments to the parseInt(java.lang.String, int) method.
    
    Parameters:
    s - a String containing the int representation to be parsed
    
    Returns:
    the integer value represented by the argument in decimal.
    
    Throws:
    
    NumberFormatException - if the string does not contain a parsable integer.
  - valueOf
```
public static Integer valueOf(String s,

  - getInteger
```
public static Integer getInteger(String nm)
```
    Determines the integer value of the system property with the specified name.
    The first argument is treated as the name of a system property. System properties are accessible through the System.getProperty(java.lang.String) method. The string value of this property is then interpreted as an integer value and an Integer object representing this value is returned. Details of possible numeric formats can be found with the definition of getProperty.
    If there is no property with the specified name, if the specified name is empty or null, or if the property does not have the correct numeric format, then null is returned.
    In other words, this method returns an Integer object equal to the value of:
    getInteger(nm, null)
    
    Parameters:
    nm - property name.
    
    Returns:
    the Integer value of the property.
    See Also:
    System.getProperty(java.lang.String), System.getProperty(java.lang.String, java.lang.String)
  - getInteger
```
public static Integer getInteger(String nm,
                 int val)
```
    Determines the integer value of the system property with the specified name.
    The first argument is treated as the name of a system property. System properties are accessible through the System.getProperty(java.lang.String) method. The string value of this property is then interpreted as an integer value and an Integer object representing this value is returned. Details of possible numeric formats can be found with the definition of getProperty.
    The second argument is the default value. An Integer object that represents the value of the second argument is returned if there is no property of the specified name, if the property does not have the correct numeric format, or if the specified name is empty or null.
    In other words, this method returns an Integer object equal to the value of:
    getInteger(nm, new Integer(val))
    but in practice it may be implemented in a manner such as:
    Integer result = getInteger(nm, null); return (result == null) ? new Integer(val) : result;
    to avoid the unnecessary allocation of an Integer object when the default value is not needed.
    Parameters:
    nm - property name.
    val - default value.
    
    Returns:
    the Integer value of the property.
    See Also:
    System.getProperty(java.lang.String), System.getProperty(java.lang.String, java.lang.String)
  - getInteger
```
public static Integer getInteger(String nm,
                 Integer val)
```
    Returns the integer value of the system property with the specified name. The first argument is treated as the name of a system property. System properties are accessible through the System.getProperty(java.lang.String) method. The string value of this property is then interpreted as an integer value, as per the Integer.decode method, and an Integer object representing this value is returned.
    - If the property value begins with the two ASCII characters 0x or the ASCII character #, not followed by a minus sign, then the rest of it is parsed as a hexadecimal integer exactly as by the method valueOf(java.lang.String, int) with radix 16.
    - If the property value begins with the ASCII character 0 followed by another character, it is parsed as an octal integer exactly as by the method valueOf(java.lang.String, int) with radix 8.
    - Otherwise, the property value is parsed as a decimal integer exactly as by the method valueOf(java.lang.String, int) with radix 10.
    The second argument is the default value. The default value is returned if there is no property of the specified name, if the property does not have the correct numeric format, or if the specified name is empty or null.
    Parameters:
    nm - property name.
    val - default value.
    
    Returns:
    the Integer value of the property.

  - decode
```
public static Integer decode(String nm)
                      throws NumberFormatException
```
    Decodes a String into an Integer. Accepts decimal, hexadecimal, and octal numbers numbers given by the following grammar:
    
    DecodableString:
    Sign_opt DecimalNumeral
    Sign_opt 0x HexDigits
    Sign_opt 0X HexDigits
    Sign_opt # HexDigits
    Sign_opt 0 OctalDigits
    
    Sign:
    -
    
    DecimalNumeral, HexDigits, and OctalDigits are defined in §3.10.1 of the Java Language Specification.
    The sequence of characters following an (optional) negative sign and/or radix specifier ("0x", "0X", "#", or leading zero) is parsed as by the Integer.parseInt method with the indicated radix (10, 16, or 8). This sequence of characters must represent a positive value or a NumberFormatException will be thrown. The result is negated if first character of the specified String is the minus sign. No whitespace characters are permitted in the String.
    
    Parameters:
    nm - the String to decode.
    
    Returns:
    a Integer object holding the int value represented by nm
    
    Throws:
    
    NumberFormatException - if the String does not contain a parsable integer.

    the value 0 if this Integer is equal to the argument Integer; a value less than 0 if this Integer is numerically less than the argument Integer; and a value greater than 0 if this Integer is numerically greater than the argument Integer (signed comparison).
    Since:
    
    1.2
  - compareTo
```
public int compareTo(Object o)
```
    Compares this Integer object to another object. If the object is an Integer, this function behaves like compareTo(Integer). Otherwise, it throws a ClassCastException (as Integer objects are only comparable to other Integer objects).
    
    Specified by:
    
    compareTo in interface Comparable
    
    Parameters:
    o - the Object to be compared.
    
    Returns:
    the value 0 if the argument is a Integer numerically equal to this Integer; a value less than 0 if the argument is a Integer numerically greater than this Integer; and a value greater than 0 if the argument is a Integer numerically less than this Integer.
    
    Throws:
