Short floatValue() method in Java with Example

Last Updated : 11 Jul, 2025
The java.lang.Short.floatValue() method of Short class is a built in method in Java which is used to return the value of the Short object as a float. Syntax: 
public float floatValue()
Return type: It return the value of ShortObject as float. Below is the implementation of floatValue() method in Java: Example 1: Java 
// Java code to demonstrate
// Short floatValue() method

class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // Short value
        Short a = 17;

        // wrapping the Short value
        // in the wrapper class Short
        Short b = new Short(a);

        // floatValue of the Short Object
        float output = b.floatValue();

        // printing the output
        System.out.println("Float value of "
                           + a + " is : " + output);
    }
}
Output: 
Float value of 17 is : 17.0
Example 2: Java 
// Java code to demonstrate
// Short floatValue() method

class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        String value = "17";

        // wrapping the Short value
        // in the wrapper class Short
        Short b = new Short(value);

        // floatValue of the Short Object
        float output = b.floatValue();

        // printing the output
        System.out.println("Float value of "
                           + b + " is : " + output);
    }
}
Output: 
Float value of 17 is : 17.0
