Java Milliseconds in Year

Question

I am doing some date calculations in Java using milliseconds and noticing an issue with the following:

private static final int MILLIS_IN_SECOND = 1000;
             


        

Answer 1

To fix this, you can put the letter L after the first one: e.g. 1000L

long MILLS_IN_YEAR = 1000L * 60 * 60 * 24 * 365; // Returns 31536000000
