From QB64 Wiki
INTEGER is a 2 byte number type definition that can hold whole numerical values.
- DIM variable AS INTEGER
- Integers do not use decimal point values but will round those off to the nearest whole number.
- Qbasic Integer values can range from -32768 to 32767 without an "overflow" error.
- For larger Integer values Qbasic can use the LONG Integer values.
- QB64 _UNSIGNED Integers can range from 0 to 65535.
- QB64 _UNSIGNED _INTEGER64 values range from 0 to 18446744073709551615
- Many Graphic programs require INTEGER arrays or DEFINT.
- The QB variable type name suffix for integers is %. _INTEGER64 uses the && suffix.
- _UNSIGNED Integer values can only be positive values or 0.
- Values can be converted to 2 byte ASCII string values using MKI$ and back with CVI.
