Today I had an exam and in that there was a question to differentiate between type casting and type conversions...Are they actually different?? I always thought they were same... :?:

Jump to PostA type cast causes a type conversion, so conversion is the effect and casting is the cause. They're not the same thing because you can have conversions without a cast if an implicit conversion is allowed.
