Is this valid: All the Java integral types are signed numbers. The char Java primitive is actually an unsigned integer type.

According to section 4.1.2 of the Java Language Specification char is also regarded as an integral type, and you cannot store negative numbers in a char.
So, the statement "all the Java integral types are signed numbers" is false.
