As the name suggests, a conversion function is a function that converts a value from one type to another. Many such conversions are either implicit or built-in operations, such as when converting from an int to a double. However, when converting between user-defined types, or between a user-defined type and a built-in type, we must write a function to explicitly perform the conversion for us. In object-oriented languages, we rely on conversion constructors and conversion operators to perform these conversions implicitly, but in C we must explicitly call the appropriate conversion functions.
