5. type casting.ipynb - Colab

The document discusses type casting in programming, explaining how to convert between different data types such as int, float, and str. It covers both implicit and explicit type casting, providing examples of each, as well as the behavior of boolean values. Additionally, it highlights common errors that occur when attempting to convert incompatible types.
