What is Type Casting?

Typecasting is changing the data type of an operation's result to a different one. One of the most important options in the C language to prevent unnecessary memory use is this one. It is a technique for making a variable store the result of any action in a way that doesn't use all available memory.

Essentially, it was added to increase memory management's effectiveness. The data type of the values can be converted fairly easily with typecasting, but we must ensure that the values we are converting are correct. For instance, while converting a character to an integer may sound odd, doing the same with a float value makes sense.

While utilizing typecasting, you must consider several factors, including the correct syntax, the data type that needs to be transformed, and others. It aids in developing programs running quickly and efficiently thanks to their low memory requirements.
