Type conversion in expression in c

Type conversion in expressions: -

  • Type conversion is a process of converting a variable's value from one data type to another data type.
  • There are two main types of conversion in C:

                1. Implicit type conversion.

                2. Explicit type conversion.

 

1) Implicit type conversion: -

  •  Implicit type conversion is a process of converting a variable's value from the lowest size of data type to the highest size of another data type.
  • This conversion is automatically done by the compiler without user intervention.
  • It is also known as type promotion or implicit type casting or automatic type conversion.
  • Hierarchy of data types: 

            Example: -


            Output: - 


2) Explicit type conversion: -

  • Explicit type conversion is a process of converting a variable's value from the highest size of datatype to the lowest size of another data type.
  • This conversion is manually done by the user by adding a cast operator (type) expression.
  • It is also known as type casting or explicit type casting or manual type conversion.

               Example: -


                Output: -

operators in c programming

v Operators: - An operator is a symbol that tells or intimates to the compiler to perform specific calculations or manipulations on one or more operands. Operators are essential for performing computations and making decisions in programs.   a + b is an operation a & b are operands + is an operator   Based on number of operands involved: 1.      Unary operators: - unary operators can be applied on only one operator. Example: -   ++ , -- , - (unary minus) , sizeof , ~ (compliment) , ! (not).   2.      Binary operators: - binary operators can be applied on two operands. Example: -   + , -,   * , / , etc.   3.    Ternary operators: - Ternary operator can be applied on three operands. Example: -   ?: (ternary conditional operator).   C supports several operators, can be classified into following...

Variables in c

  Variables: - A variable is a data name or an identifier which stores a value that can be changed during the program execution.  Every variable might belong to any of the data types, like int, float, char, etc.  The name of a variable can be composed of letters, digits, and the underscore character. It must begin with either a letter or an underscore.  Variables are case-sensitive because uppercase and lowercase letters are distinct. C programming language also allows defining various other types of variables, like numeric array, character array, pointer, Structure, Union, Enumeration and etc.               Example: - sum, height, _value Declaring a variable in C: - Variable declaration means telling the compiler about the name and type of a variable before using it in the program. Variable declaration is the process of reserving a memory location and defining the type of data that will be stored in that locatio...

Cloud Storage and Local Storage: Applications in Business

  Cloud Storage and  Local Storage: Applications in Business: -   Local Storage: - Local storage refers to storing data such as text, audio, video, graphics, animation, special characters, constants, mathematical expressions and numeric data on physical devices in our computer or other electronic devices. Local storage in business refers to storing business data such as customer contact information, sales records, financial statements, employee data, market research, operational metrics, raw information like customer feedback.  It can also stores the structured data, such as in spreadsheets, or unstructured, like text from surveys or social media post on physical devices like hard drives, SSDs, or company servers within the organization’s premises.  The business owns and manages the storage hardware.  Local storage provides faster access to large files, which is helpful for tasks like video editing, 3D rendering, and engineering design projects. It o...
