ToByte	Converts a type to a byte.
ToChar	Converts a type to a single Unicode character, where possible.
ToDateTime	Converts a type (integer or string type) to date-time structures.
ToDecimal	Converts a floating point or integer type to a decimal type.
ToDouble	Converts a type to a double type.
ToInt16	Converts a type to a 16-bit integer.
ToInt32	Converts a type to a 32-bit integer.
ToInt64	Converts a type to a 64-bit integer.
ToSbyte	Converts a type to a signed byte type.
ToSingle	Converts a type to a small floating point number.
ToString	Converts a type to a string.
ToType	Converts a type to a specified type.
ToUInt16	Converts a type to an unsigned int type.
ToUInt32	Converts a type to an unsigned long type.
ToUInt64	Converts a type to an unsigned big integer.

C# Example of Data conversion and typecasting

using System;

namespace TypeConversionApplication {
   class StringConversion {
      static void Main(string[] args) {
         int i = 35;
         float f = 35.005f;
         double d = 35.1234;
         bool b = false;

         Console.WriteLine(i.ToString());
         Console.WriteLine(f.ToString());
         Console.WriteLine(d.ToString());
         Console.WriteLine(b.ToString());
         Console.ReadKey();
            
      }
   }
}

Output

35
35.005
35.1234
False
