A literal is a value that is static and converted directly into a primitive data value. For example, 10 is a literal meaning the decimal value 10, 0x10 is a literal value meaning hexadecimal value 10 (decimal 16), and "Hello, World!" is a literal value that will become a String (java.lang.String).

In computing, literals are fixed values in the code.

For example, in C#: 1, 3.14159f, "Test", 'Z', 6.3e31, 0x000, 3.99m

A character literal is a single character stored as a 16 bit integer. A character literal is enclosed in single quotes. For example, 'A', ' ', and '!' are all character literals.
