Int

An Int (Integer) Data Type represents a numerical value. More specifically, a whole, precise number (negative or positive).

Integers are used when no decimal point is required, such as the amount of people in a sports stadium.

They are very precise but only have a range between -2,147,483,648 and 2,147,483,647.

For very large numbers or very small numbers, Floats are a better fit, due to their higher range (at the cost of precision).
