Let me display my ignorance here: from reading various things posted on the net,
I am led to believe that all assignments include an implicit cast such that:

	a = (type of 'a') (expression);

Is exactly equivalent in ALL cases to:

	a = (expression);

Is this true?

they when *I* don't even know what I'm talking about???)
