Typecasting in python

Typecasting in python can be done by following functions

int()

constructs an integer number from an integer literal, a float literal , or a string literal 

print(int(1))   #prints  1
print(int(2.8)) #prints  2
print(int("3")) #prints  3

float()

constructs a float number from an integer literal, a float literal or a string literal 

print(float(1))     # prints 1.0
print(float(2.8))   # prints 2.8
print(float("3"))   # prints 3.0
print(float("4.2")) # prints 4.2

str() 

constructs a string from a wide variety of data types, including strings, integer literals and float literals

print(str("s1")) # prints 's1'
print(str(2))    # prints '2'
print(str(3.0))  # prints '3.0'

#convert from int to float:
x = float(1)

#convert from float to int:
y = int(2.8)

#convert from int to complex:
z = complex(x)


print(x)#prints 1.0
print(y)#prints 2
print(z)#prints (1+0j)
