Dennis,

As Paul mentioned, technically that's casting. But the premise is the same: The resulting value is populated based on the variable type of the receiver. The compiler can easily determine what type the target is and populate it accordingly.

That's not changing the type of value returned from %INT, it is merely
changing the way you use it.

No cheating. :)
