Prerequisites[edit]

Introduction[edit]

In some cases we have a value of one type but want to use it in another context, as a different type. Depending on language, this may be referred to as "type conversion", "type casting", or "type coercion". Often, type casting refers to the mere re-interpretation of existing bits, while type conversion creates a new representation of data as a different type.
