Here: These explicit operators are implemented by constructing a new instance of the target type.
And: They set the Name property. Thus the Apartment or House is now of the opposite type but has the same data field.
Tip: Implicit requires a public static method that returns the type you want to convert to and accepts the type you are converting from.
Next: We provide a Machine class and a Widget class. Both classes have implicit conversion operators.
Operators: The implicit operators here convert the Machine and Widget types by manipulating their _value fields.
And: The Widget and Machine may be conceptually equal but have a different representation of their data.
However: For classes such as Apartment or House, an explicit operator is not normally needed or useful.
And: The example here is for illustrative purposes. Explicit should be rarely used.
Thus: Implicit is not something that most programs will require. It is worth knowing it exists, but not often useful.
