							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p>Integer constants are numbers used directly in a sketch, like <code>123</code>.  By default, these numbers are treated as <a class='wikilink' href='Int.html'>int</a>'s but you can change this with the U and L modifiers (see below).
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								</p>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p class='vspace'></p><p>Normally, integer constants are treated as base 10 (decimal) integers, but special notation (formatters) may be used to enter numbers in other bases.  
							 | 
						||
| 
								 |

								<p>The binary formatter only works on bytes (8 bits) between 0 (B0) and 255 (B11111111). If it is convenient to input an int (16 bits) in binary form you can do it a two-step procedure such as:

								<strong>Hexadecimal (or hex)</strong> is base sixteen. Valid characters are 0 through 9 and letters A through F; A has the value 10, B is 11, up to F, which is 15. Hex values are indicated by the prefix "0x". Note that A-F may be syted in upper or lower case (a-f).

								<p class='vspace'></p><ul><li>a 'u' or 'U' to force the constant into an unsigned data format. Example: <code>33u</code>
