Example
These are NOT Integers

5.3 (No decimal places in Integers), 636.24


Integers can be used where you need to have negative numbers, but not a lot of decimal accuracy. Your numbers can't get very accurate (there is no "between" 1 and 2) but they can go negative.

In IntValues, the lowest value it can hold is -231 or -2,147,483,648. The highest value it can hold is 231-1, or 2,147,483,647. For the computer geeks out there, this is a 32-bit (or long) signed integer value.
