C++ Tutorial/Development/static cast

Use static_cast.

<source lang="cpp">#include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() {

 int i;
 for(i=0; i<10; i++)
   cout << static_cast<double> (i) / 3 << " ";
 return 0;

}</source>

0 0.333333 0.666667 1 1.33333 1.66667 2 2.33333 2.66667 3 "

Using static_cast: base and derived class

<source lang="cpp">#include <iostream>

1. include <ostream>

class base {}; class derived : public base {}; class other : public base {}; int main() {

 base* b = new derived;
 static_cast<derived&>(*b); 
 static_cast<other*>(b);    
 derived* d = new derived;
 b = d;
 b = static_cast<base*>(d); 

}</source>

Using static_cast: for enum data type

<source lang="cpp">#include <iostream>

1. include <ostream>

enum color { red, black }; int main() {

 color c = static_cast<color>(red);

}</source>
