This print for content only-size & color not accurate 7" X 9-1/4" / casebound / malloy

// Assume the length of the new Rectangle with

// (Length x 2)

r.Width = s.Length * 2;

return r;

}

}

With this update, you are now able to convert between types as follows:

static void Main(string[] args)

{

...

// Implicit cast OK!

Square s3;

s3.Length= 7;

Rectangle rect2 = s3;

Console.WriteLine("rect2 = {0}", rect2);

DrawSquare(s3);

// Explicit cast syntax still OK!

Square s4;

s4.Length = 3;

Rectangle rect3 = (Rectangle)s4;

Console.WriteLine("rect3 = {0}", rect3);

Console.ReadLine();

}

Again, be aware that it is permissible to define explicit and implicit conversion routines for the

same type as long as their signatures differ. Thus, you could update the Square as follows:

C H A P T E R   1 2  

■

I N D E X E R S, O P E R ATO R S, A N D   P O I N T E R S
