Decode a string to create long value

static Long decode(String nm)

Decodes a String into a Long.

decode(String nm) accepts decimal, hexadecimal, and octal numbers given by the following grammar:

+/- 0x HexDigits 
+/- 0X HexDigits 
+/- # HexDigits 
+/- 0 OctalDigits

public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Long longObject = Long.decode("0Xff");
    System.out.println(longObject);

  }
}

The output:

255
