Java Wrapper Classes Full Tutorial | Boxing, Unboxing, parseInt(), valueOf(), MAX_VALUE & More
Wrapper Classes in Java often seem confusing to beginners, but they are used everywhere — in Collections, Frameworks, type conversions, and even in interview questions.
In this video, I explain Wrapper Classes from scratch with simple examples, covering everything from Boxing, Unboxing, Autoboxing, Auto-Unboxing to all important Integer utility methods you must know for interviews and real-world coding.
💡 What You’ll Learn in This Video:
✔ What are Wrapper Classes in Java?
✔ Why Java is not 100% object-oriented and how Wrapper Classes solve this problem
✔ Need for Wrapper Classes – Collections (List, Map), Type Conversion, Generics
✔ Boxing & Unboxing – Converting primitive types to objects and back
✔ Autoboxing & Auto-unboxing – How Java does conversion automatically
✔ Converting String to int using Integer.parseInt() and valueOf()
✔ intValue(), toString(), compareTo(), max(), min(), sum() methods in Integer class
✔ Understanding Integer.MAX_VALUE and Integer.MIN_VALUE
