Java Integer floatValue() Method

Java floatValue() method belongs to the Integer class of the java.lang package. This method returns the floating equivalent of the Integer after a widening primitive conversion(Conversion of a lower data type into a higher data type).

In short, this method is used to convert an Integer object into a float value.

Syntax:

public float floatValue()  

Parameter:

No parameter is passed in this method.

Returns:

The float equivalent of the Integer object that is created after conversion.

Example 1:

Here, using the floatValue() function the Integer object is converted into its float equivalent.

import java.lang.Integer;

public class StudyTonight
{  
    public static void main(String[] args) 
      {  
        //converting integer object into float
          Integer x = 65;
          float i=x.floatValue();
          System.out.println(i);
          
          
          Integer y = 90;  
          float d = y.floatValue();  
          System.out.println(d);
      }  
}    


65.0
90.0

Example 2:

Here is a user-defined example where anyone using this code can put a value of his choice and get the equivalent float value.

import java.util.Scanner;  
public class StudyTonight
{  
    public static void main(String[] args) 
    {  
         try
           {
              System.out.print("Enter the value to be converted : ");  
              Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);  
              int i = sc.nextInt();  
              Integer n = i ;  
              float val = n.floatValue();  //converting integer object into float
              System.out.println("Float Value is: " + val);  
           }
         catch(Exception e)
           {
              System.out.println("not a valid integer"); 
           }
    }
}


Enter the value to be converted: 23
Float Value is: 23.0
