A numeric value is always signed. You can write code that expresses an integer constant in the following ways:
- Decimal. You can use the decimal representation to express a decimal constant.
- Octal. You precede the constant with &O or with &o to express an octal value. For example, &o177.
- Hexadecimal. You precede the constant with &H or with &h to express a hexadecimal value. For example, &H8001.
