Complete Modern C++ - Type Conversions - Part II (Primitive to User Type)

The video tutorial explains type conversion from primitive to user-defined types using constructors. It covers how constructors can be invoked explicitly or implicitly, and how the compiler uses parameterized constructors for type conversion. The tutorial also discusses the use of the explicit keyword to prevent implicit conversions and highlights the difference between initialization and assignment. The video concludes with a note on when to use the explicit keyword for constructors.
