Type Casting in C
Typecasting allows us to convert one data type into other. In C language, we use cast operator for typecasting which is denoted by (type).
Syntax:

(type)value;    

Note: It is always recommended to convert the lower value to higher for avoiding data loss.
Without Type Casting:

int f= 9/4;
printf("f : %d\n", f );//Output: 2

With Type Casting:

float f=(float) 9/4;
printf("f : %f\n", f );//Output: 2.250000





Type Casting example
Let's see a simple example to cast int value into the float.

#include
int main(){
float f= (float)9/4;  
printf("f : %f\n", f );  
return 0;
}    

Output:

f : 2.250000
