5+ In Kotlin, a numeric value of one type is not automatically converted to another type even when the other type is larger.
6+ This is different from how Java handles numeric conversions.
7+
8+ Here's a list of functions in Kotlin used for type conversion:
9+
10+ toByte()
11+ toShort()
12+ toInt()
13+ toLong()
14+ toFloat()
15+ toDouble()
16+ toChar()
17+
18+ Note: There is no conversion for Boolean types.

24+ 25+ // convert String to Int
26+ val number2: Int = string1.toInt()

29+ println (" number1 = ${string1+ 11 } "
30+ 31+ // 54 + 11 = 65
32+ println (" number2 = ${number2+ 11 } "
33+ 34+ 35+ // smaller types are NOT implicitly converted to bigger types.
36+ // This means that we cannot assign a value of type Byte to an Int variable without an explicit conversion
37+ 38+ /*
39+ val b: Byte = 1 // OK, literals are checked statically
40+ val i: Int = b // Type mismatch. */
