11,088 | 1 | 11,101 | null | 59 | 26,848 | In Java, there is no such thing as an unsigned byte.
Working with some low level code, occasionally you need to work with bytes that have unsigned values greater than 128, which causes Java to interpret them as a negative number due to the MSB being used for sign.

11,098 | 2 | null | 11,088 | 0 | null | Probably your best bet is to use an integer rather than a byte. It has the room to allow for numbers greater than 128 without the overhead of having to create a special object to replace byte.

11,102 | 2 | null | 11,099 | 2 | null | It doesn't really matter, as long as you're consistent with it.
There does seem to be a tendency to demand sameness within a single statement, i.e. if there's brackets in one branch, there's brackets everywhere. The Linux kernel coding standards, for one, mandate that.
