<h1><center>Typecast</center></h1>
<hr>
The result type of an arithmetic <a href=208.htm>expression</a>
can be explicitly converted to a different arithmetic type by applying a
<i>typecast</i> to it.
<p>
The general syntax of a typecast is
<pre>
type(expression)
</pre>
where <tt>type</tt> is one of
<tt><a href=155.htm>char</a></tt>,
<tt><a href=156.htm>int</a></tt> or
<tt><a href=157.htm>real</a></tt>,
and <tt>expression</tt> is any arithmetic
<a href=208.htm>expression</a>.
<p>
When typecasting a <tt><a href=157.htm>real</a></tt> expression to
<tt><a href=156.htm>int</a></tt>, the fractional part of the value
is truncated!
