Integer
The Integer
data type is a whole number data type that is limited to 64 bits. It is used to represent integers without a fractional component. It can be used in cases where you need to store a large range of positive or negative whole numbers, such as in-game currency or player levels.
Unlike the Number data type, integers do not have any precision caveats since they do not store decimal values. Therefore, they are suitable for calculations that require exact values.
