positive integer is any whole number that does not have a - in front of it (eg. 1,2,3,4)

negative integer is any whole number that does have a - in front of it (eg. -1,-2,-3,-4)

Positive integers is an integer is positive if it is greater than zero. A negative integer is an integer that is negative if it is less then zero

Example: -1,-2,-3 zero is defined as nervier negative nor positive integer. Because zero is a whole number.
