Datatype Conversion. It is sometimes beneficial to convert a value from one type of data to another. Each of the conversion functions converts its parameter to an equivalent representation within its datatype. The conversion functions include int(), float(), char(), byte(), and others.

  byte b;    // Bytes are values between -128 and 128
  
  c = 'A';
  f = float(c);     // Sets f = 65.0
