Answer / ritesh kumar
Boxing is converting a value type to a reference type
(Object Type).Casting is converting a reference type to a
reference type or a value type as another value type.
int i = 0;
object o = (object)i; //this is boxing
int i2 = (int)o; //this is unboxing.
long l = (long)i; //this is casting.
