Description

Byte is a basic type which can hold an 8-bits unsigned integer value (0..255), any value outside of the range that is stored in it will overflow back into the range. ShortInt is the signed version of this type.

Example

var
  Value: Byte;

begin
  Value := 0;
  WriteLn(Value);
  Value := 255;
  WriteLn(Value);
  Value := -1;
  WriteLn(Value);
  Value := 256;
  WriteLn(Value);
end.

Output:

0
255
255
