I want to know why int, double etc have 1 more negative value than positive value.
The Integer. MIN_VALUE is a constant in the Integer class that represents the minimum or least integer value that can be represented in 32 bits, which is -2147483648, -231.
We will set the first derivative of the function to zero and solve for x to get the critical point. If we take the second derivative or f''(x), then we can find out whether this point will be a maximum or minimum. If the second derivative is positive, it will be a minimum value.
You can find this minimum value by graphing the function or by using one of the two equations. If you have the equation in the form of y = ax^2 + bx + c, then you can find the minimum value using the equation min = c - b^2/4a.
MAX_VALUE in Java Required? It is used to automatically assign any variable the maximum integer possible without requiring to remember the exact number. There are many times when we need a maximum or minimum number.
In a nutshell: 0 has to fit somewhere, it is in the positives, which makes them have one less than the negatives.
Example: 5 slots for negatives and 5 for positives, negatives get -1 to -5, positives get 0 to 4
As @WhozCraig pointed out, this is only valid for architectures that use two's complement representation of signed binary numbers.
