Description: UInt16 is a data type in Swift that represents a 16-bit unsigned integer. This means it can store integer values in the range of 0 to 65,535. Being an unsigned type, unlike signed integers, it does not reserve space to represent negative numbers, allowing all available bits to be used for positive values. UInt16 is part of the family of numeric data types in Swift, which includes other types such as Int, UInt8, UInt32, and UInt64, each with different storage capacities and value ranges. This type is particularly useful in situations where efficient memory usage is required, such as in applications that handle large volumes of data or in systems where resources are limited. Additionally, UInt16 is compatible with arithmetic and logical operations, allowing for efficient calculations. In Swift, data types are safe and designed to prevent common errors, such as overflows, making UInt16 a reliable choice for handling numeric data in modern programming.
