Short.toUnsignedLong() in Java

Short.toUnsignedLong(): This method is available in java.lang.Short class of Java.

Syntax:

long java.lang.Short.toUnsignedLong(short x)

This method takes one argument of type short as its parameter. This method converts the argument to a long by an unsigned conversion. In an unsigned conversion to a long, the high-order 48 bits of the long are zero and the low-order 16 bits are equal to the bits of the short argument.

Note:

Consequently, zero and positive short values are mapped to a numerically equal long value and negative short values are mapped to a long value equal to the input plus 216.

Parameters: One parameter is required for this method.

x: the value to convert to an unsigned long.

Returns: the argument converted to long by an unsigned conversion.

Exceptions: NA

Approach

Java

public class ShorttoUnsignedLong {
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        short x = 12;
        System.out.println(Short.toUnsignedLong(x));
    }
}

Output:

12
