About the int data type

Sequence of digits without commas or decimals and optional sign character (ASCII characters "-" and "0" - "9" ). The sign character utilizes one byte (i.e. positive int is "99999" while negative int is "-99999"). Note that int values may contain leading zeros (e.g. "00023" = "23"). Examples: 723 in field 21 would be mapped int as |21=723|. -723 in field 12 would be mapped int as |12=-723| The following data types are based on int.
