Integers are whole numbers and are used constantly, especially when, before I retired from work, I would check that my wage package (wage slip) was correct! So while 1, 2, 3, or -1, -2, -3 are integers, the decimals 11.2, 234.55 or -11.2, -234.55 are not.
Every time you need to use 1, 2, 3, and so on in maths, or even counting your money to ensure you have enough to get the bus home rather than having to walk, you are using integers!
