indexing array fields

Hello,

I need to index arrays of long, usually of long[20], 20 in length.
Its been a while since I worked with lucene, last time was probably <
version 3.

I read
https://lucene.apache.org/core/6_2_0/core/org/apache/lucene/document/Field.html

There are SortedDocValuesField and SortedSetDocValuesField classes, which
to accept a byte array. I could attempt chop the long fields into a byte
array, and index that.

Also what is the difference between NumericDocValuesField, and
SortedNumericDocValuesField?

Best regards,
