This is a Java program that demonstrates the use of a decimal literal. In Java, a decimal literal is a sequence of digits that represents a whole number value in base 10.

The program declares an integer variable named decimal_value and assigns it the value 256. This value is a decimal literal that represents the decimal value 256.

The program then prints the value of decimal_value to the console using the System.out.println method. When run, the program will output the value of decimal_value, which is 256.

Program:

 public class DecimalLiteral {

  public static void main(String[] a) {
	  
    int decimal_value = 256; // decimal 256
    System.out.println(decimal_value);
    
  }

}

Output:

256
