# `cast`
|
||||
|
||||
`cast()` takes two arguments, one type and one value, and returns a value of the given type.
|
||||
|
||||
The (inferred) type of the value and the given type do not need to have any correlation.
|
||||
|
||||
```py
|
||||
from typing import Literal, cast
|
||||
|
||||
reveal_type(True) # revealed: Literal[True]
|
||||
reveal_type(cast(str, True)) # revealed: str
|
||||
reveal_type(cast("str", True)) # revealed: str
|
||||
|
||||
reveal_type(cast(int | str, 1)) # revealed: int | str
|
||||
|
||||
# error: [invalid-type-form]
|
||||
reveal_type(cast(Literal, True)) # revealed: Unknown
|
||||
|
||||
# TODO: These should be errors
|
||||
cast(1)
|
||||
cast(str)
|
||||
cast(str, b"ar", "foo")
|
||||
|
||||
# TODO: Either support keyword arguments properly,
|
||||
# or give a comprehensible error message saying they're unsupported
|
||||
cast(val="foo", typ=int) # error: [unresolved-reference] "Name `foo` used when not defined"
|
||||
```
