The `intCol` method creates a column containing Java primitive integer values.

> [!NOTE]
> This method is commonly used with [`newTable`](./newTable.md) to create tables.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> Integer columns do not support infinite and not-a-number (NaN) values.

## Syntax

```
intCol(name, data...)
```

## Parameters

<ParamTable>
<Param name="name" type="String">

The name of the new column.

</Param>
<Param name="data" type="int...">

The column values.

</Param>
</ParamTable>

## Returns

A [`ColumnHolder`](/core/javadoc/io/deephaven/engine/table/impl/util/ColumnHolder.html).

## Example

The following examples use [`newTable`](./newTable.md) to create a table with a single column of integers named `Integers`.

```groovy
result = newTable(
    intCol("Integers", 1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
)
```
