What is type casting?..

casting means one type of date to another type of data.
There are two types
1.Implicit Type Casting.
2.Explicit Type Casting.

public class One {
static short i=10;
int k =i; //implicit
byte b = (byte)i;//Explicit
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("integer i..."+i);
}
}

1.Implicit Casting :
===================
The small data type will be automatically covert to big data
type.
Example:
static short i=10;
int k =i; //implicit
2.Explicit Casting:
===================
The big data type will be convert to small data type by type
casting.
Example:
static short i=10;
byte b = (byte)i;//Explicit
