What is the difference between type conversion and type casting in C#?
Type conversion and type casting are the same in C#. It is converting one type of data to another type. In C#, type casting has two forms −
Implicit type conversion − These conversions are performed by C# in a type-safe manner. For example, are conversions from smaller to larger integral types and conversions from derived classes to base classes.
Explicit type conversion − These conversions are done explicitly by users using the pre-defined functions. Explicit conversions require a cast operator.
The following is an example showing how to cast double to int −
Example
using System;
namespace Demo {
class Program {
static void Main(string[] args) {
double d = 9322.46;
int i;
// cast double to int
i = (int)d;
Console.WriteLine(i);
Console.ReadKey();
}
}
}Output
9322
