Only integer part "fits", so that’s all that goes Called "implicit" or "automatic type conversion" Literals 2, , "Z", "Hello World" Considered "constants": can’t change in program Literal Data Literals Examples: 2 // Literal constant int // Literal constant double "Z" // Literal constant char "Hello World" // Literal constant string Cannot change values during execution Called "literals" because you "literally typed" them in your program! Escape Sequences "Extend" character set Backslash, \ preceding a character Instructs compiler: a special "escape character" .
