C Integer Constants

An "integer constant" is a decimal (base 10), octal (base 8), or hexadecimal (base 16) number that represents an integral value. Use integer constants to represent integer values that cannot be changed.

Syntax

  • integer-constant:
    decimal-constant integer-suffix opt

    octal-constant integer-suffix opt

    hexadecimal-constant integer-suffix opt

  • decimal-constant:
    nonzero-digit

    decimal-constant digit

  • octal-constant:
    0

    octal-constant octal-digit

  • hexadecimal-constant:
    0x hexadecimal-digit

    0X hexadecimal-digit

    hexadecimal-constant hexadecimal-digit

  • nonzero-digit: one of
    1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

  • octal-digit: one of
    0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

  • hexadecimal-digit: one of
    0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

    a b c d e f

    A B C D E F

  • integer-suffix:
    unsigned-suffix long-suffix opt

    long-suffix unsigned-suffix opt

  • unsigned-suffix: one of
    u U

  • long-suffix: one of
    l L

  • 64-bit integer-suffix:
    i64

Integer constants are positive unless they are preceded by a minus sign (). The minus sign is interpreted as the unary arithmetic negation operator. (See Unary Arithmetic Operators for information about this operator.)

If an integer constant begins with 0x or 0X, it is hexadecimal. If it begins with the digit 0, it is octal. Otherwise, it is assumed to be decimal.

The following lines are equivalent:

0x1C   /* = Hexadecimal representation for decimal 28 */
034    /* = Octal representation for decimal 28 */

No white-space characters can separate the digits of an integer constant. These examples show valid decimal, octal, and hexadecimal constants.
