What is the numerical range of a char?

As per the Unicode Character Base Scheme, a ‘char’ datatype in JAVA yields a space of 2 Bytes in a memory location.

Hence, the calculation:

2*8 = 16 bits

So,

(2^16)-1 = 65535

Thus, shows JAVA character have Unsigned Integer Value.

Fruitful information for programmers for yielding an efficient code

All The Best!
