Java type casting error

Java type casting error

It is a runtime exception that occurs when the application code attempts to cast an object of class type A into another class type B.

But, in your code above, I don't see that concern. We can convert int to double in java using assignment operator. Read[^].

Quote:

Java performs implicit conversion or widening conversion when both data types involved in conversion are compatible, or the value of a smaller data type is assigned to a bigger data type. Double is bigger than int as it requires more storage space; hence, int values are implicitly converted to double by Java.

public static void main(String []args){
    System.out.println("Hello, World!");
    
    int myInt = 56;
    double myDouble = myInt;
    System.out.println (myInt);
    System.out.println (myDouble);

 }
// Output as below
// Hello, World!
// 56
// 56.0

If you reverse the datatypes, you would surely get a incompatible types error. Example:

double myInt = 56;
int myDouble = myInt;
System.out.println (myInt);
// Errors as:
//error: incompatible types: possible lossy conversion from double to int 

Another example[^]:

// creating an object
Object o = new Object();

// type casting the object o to string which give the classcasted exception because we
// type cast an parent type to its child type.
String s = (String)o;

// errors as
// java.lang.ClassCastException: class java.lang.Object cannot be cast to class java.lang.String (java.lang.Object and java.lang.String are in module java.base of loader 'bootstrap')
