A data field of the Int16 data type can only contain integer values ​​with and without sign.
 
Assigning other values ​​leads to compiler error messages when the program is compiled and the compilation process is aborted. That is, the executable program is not created.
 
 
 
Declaration of a data field of type Int16:
 
 
 
<syntaxhighlight lang=pascal>
 
  var
 
    i16 : int16;
 
</syntaxhighlight>
 
 
 
Examples of assigning valid values:
 
 
 
<syntaxhighlight lang=pascal>
 
    i16 := - 32768;
 
    i16 := 0;
 
    i16 := 32767;
 
</syntaxhighlight>
 
 
 
Examples of assigning invalid values:
 
 
 
<syntaxhighlight lang=pascal>
 
    i16 := '-32768';
 
    i16 := '0';
 
    i16 := '32767';
 
</syntaxhighlight>
 
 
 
The difference between the two examples is that the upper example is the assignment of literals of the type [[Integer]], while the assignment of the lower example is literals of the type [[String]].
