The Java API docs should be towards the top of your list when you research how to do something in Java. Learning to navigate them is a necessary skill, imho. In this case, you can scroll the upper-left frame down until you find the java.lang package. When the lower-left frame finishes loading, scroll down to the Integer, Double, Short, etc. class and click on it. The documentation for the class you chose appears in the main frame on the right.

The link I gave above is specifically for J2SDK 1.4.2. If you are using a different version, visit
here to find the appropriate documentation.
