| Numeric types can be converted to other numeric types by using the appropriate type conversion functions. The function’s name is the name of the destination type.
Examples: int(3.14) float(3) The ord and chr functions are used to convert between integers and characters, as follows: ord(‘A’) chr(65) The str function converts any Python object to its corresponding string representation. str(45) str(3.14) |
Numeric types can be converted to other numeric types by using the appropriate cast operators. A cast operator is formed by enclosing the destination type name in parentheses.
Examples: (int) 3.14 (double) 3 (char) 45 (int) ‘a’ When casting from an integer to a character or the other way around, the integer is assumed to be the character’s Unicode value. The simplest way to convert any value to a string is to concatenate it to an empty string, as follows: “” + 3.14 “” + 45 |
