How can I convert values from a variable of one type to another variable of a
different type?  I need to convert a float variable over to a char variable. 
In pascal there were functions for this in c I can't find anything.  I have
heard of casting but I can't get it to work and there isn't any documentation
about it anywhere.  Someone also told me that you can't cast between float
and char. Does anyone know of a funciton or anything that can be used for
this? Thanks in advance.
