Conversions - Performance Note
Conversions in assignments between data objects with different data
types, or the specification of a data object in an operand position
where a different data type is expected, lead to runtime costs. To avoid
these costs, conversions should be avoided where possible and only data
objects of the same type should be assigned to one another.
