In the first instance writing literal value in your code will result in the values being an int. If you don't want this, signal that you don't, like this:

(just to make it clear, that is a lower-case L after the int value)

In the second case, primitive values cannot be null, so there is only really one method that can be called, i.e. the one that takes an Object as a parameter.

You must look at .

Choose the Most Specific Method.

This will helps you a lot ......I am quite sure.
