In computer science, type conversion,[1][2] type casting,[1][3] type coercion,[3] and type juggling[4][5] are different ways of changing an expression from one data type to another.
You don’t even have a clue, you are just talking trash.
In assembly you don’t generally talk about pointers, but address modes. Like register, immediate or memory (indirect).
Have you ever actually been programming any serious assembly? Because you sure don’t sound like it.
Great! Now please explain how opcodes are expressions. Also, what processor instruction a cast from one pointer type to another pointer type corresponds to.
You are way out of your depth here. Have you even implemented a compiler.
“floating-point pointers” is not a thing:
No it’s not:
