BINARY_INTEGER is derived from INTEGER and can be assigned negative as well as positive values. Same is true for PLS_INTEGER.
In earlier versions of Oracle 8i and 9i botth these were different and PLS_INTEGER was supposed to be faster than BINARY_INTEGER when it comes to arithmetic calculations.
But after 10g both can be used in the same way without sacrificing time.
Google is my friend...
