Explain implicit and explicit type conversion.
← All C# questions
Re-explain
Implicit Conversion:
- Automatic conversion by compiler
- No data loss
- Smaller to larger types
Explicit Conversion:
- Manual conversion using cast operator
- Potential data loss
- Larger to smaller types or incompatible types
// Implicit conversion
int intValue = 123;
double doubleValue = intValue; // Automatic conversion
// Explicit conversion
double largeValue = 123.456;
int smallValue = (int)largeValue; // Manual cast, loses decimal part
// Using Convert class
string numberString = "123";
int convertedValue = Convert.ToInt32(numberString);
