Introduction
Suppose you have initialized a variable with a char data type. At some point in a program, you need its integer value. In such situations, type-casting comes in.
Type-casting is a way to convert the value of one data type to another data type.
Types of type-casting
Type-casting has two types:
- Implicit casting
- Explicit casting
