# Max Safe Integer
> Maximum safe [half-precision floating-point][half-precision-floating-point-format] integer.
<section class="usage">
## Usage
```javascript
var FLOAT16_MAX_SAFE_INTEGER = require( '@stdlib/constants/float16/max-safe-integer' );
```
#### FLOAT16_MAX_SAFE_INTEGER
The maximum [safe][safe-integers] [half-precision floating-point][half-precision-floating-point-format] integer.
```javascript
var bool = ( FLOAT16_MAX_SAFE_INTEGER === 2047 );
// returns true
```
