Question

implicit conversion in C​

Answer 1

Answer:

Implicit Type Conversion is also known as ‘automatic type conversion‘. It is done by the compiler on its own, without any external trigger from the user. It generally takes place when in an expression more than one data type is present. In such condition type conversion (type promotion) takes place to avoid loss of data. All the data types of the variables are upgraded to the data type of the variable with the largest data type.

There are many ways in which the Implicit Type Conversion occurs in C, such as:

Conversion Rank

A rank can be assigned to the integer and floating-point arithmetic type, from 1 to 9. This scale is theoretically accurate but the actual implementation is not this easy. A long double real has a higher rank than long real and a short integer has a higher rank than a character....
