INTEGER datatype

What is the difference between datatypes INTEGER  & NUMBER(p) in Oracle?
I don't see much documentation about INTEGER datatype anywhere. Is it  an
outdataed one


being supported for backward compatability reasons ?



The reason I am asking is I need to convert a Sybase database to Oracle and
want to know


the Sybase INTEGER's equivalent in Ocalce.



Thanks
