Integers are the natural numbers (counting numbers: 1,2,3,etc.), and their negative counterparts, and zero.

The set of Integers is closed for addition, subtraction, and multiplication, but not division. Closed means that the answer will be a part of the set.

Example: 1/3 (1 divided by 3 equals one third) is not an integer, even though both 1 and 3 are integers.
