Suppose you are subtracting one variable from another, one variable is an integer type and another one is of double type (A double type can represent fractional as well as whole values). What will you gonna do, to get the correct answer?
The answer is simple you’ll convert one of the variables to another so that you get both of the variables of the same type and solve your problem statement. This is what Type Conversion is about.
Type Conversion is all about converting variables of one type into variables of another type. We do this to make variables compatible with each other.
