Question

What is the difference between implicit type conversion and explicit type conversion?

Answer 1

Answer:1.Implicit conversion is used to convert(or store) a value of lower data type into a larger datatype,
2. User intervision is not necessary,
3.Does not result in loss of data,
Whereas,
1.Explicit conversion is  used to conver a value of higher datatype into a lower datatype value,
2.User intervision is necessary
3. May result in the loss of data.
Explanation:IMPLICIT:
char c='a';
int n=c;
EXPLICIT:
double d=5.56;
int m=(int)d;

Answer 2

1. When the data type gets converted automatically into its higher type, it is known as implicit type conversion whereas when the data type gets converted to another type depending upon the user's choice , it is known as explicit type conversion.
2. In implicit type conversion, it gets converted without any intervention of the user whereas In explicit type conversion, it gets converted after after the user intervention.
3. e.g. of implicit type conversion :-

int a; float b; float c;

c = a+b;

e.g. of explicit type conversion :-

int a; float b; double c;

b = (float) (a*c);
