Typecasting


Typecating,
this word can immediately generate interest for programmers ( C , C++ , JAVA )
I am confused when i try to relate "technical" meaning of "typecasting" with "real-life" meaning of the same.

Technical : Converting an expression of a given type into another type is known as type-casting.

Real Life (actors):
the process by which an actor is strongly identified with a specific character, role, or trait.

So confusion all around.Actually we all "love" to get type casted.Consider what "algorithm" we follow while "walking", "shopping","talking". How many times we use words like "I always do this like this".Once KK menon said , "Everyone is type casted .... why else everyone is know by particular name :) " .

I remember my childhood days , when i used to do some "mischief" and others complained that to my mother , her first remark used to be "my son can not do this!!!". Oh! sadly i became "good-boy", don't know for "good-or-bad".

But, there are times when we do try to break "the typecast".If others can do why not me?.It's fun to be slight "out-of-box-doing-things"...after all we all should taste the different "flavours" which life has to offer.

so let's try to break the cast.....come out of "Jerry's hole" (from tom-and-Jerry)....have fun....and we all know, we have to come to our "cast" to be safe from "tom"...hehe

before closing , i would like to quote dialogue from the Prison break
"We are captives of our own identity living in prison of our own creation".
Let's break that prison.

by folks,
