CSharp – Conversions

CSharp – Conversions

Type conversion is basically converting one type of data to another type.

Example:

using System;
using System.Collections;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    class StringConversion
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            int i = 75;
            float f = 53.005f;
            double d = 2345.7652;
            bool b = true;

            Console.WriteLine(i.ToString());
            Console.WriteLine(f.ToString());
            Console.WriteLine(d.ToString());
            Console.WriteLine(b.ToString());
            Console.ReadKey();

        }
    }
}

The result is:

75
53.005
2345.7652
True
