Data type conversion

ColdFusion automatically converts between data types to satisfy the requirements of an expression's operations, including a function's argument requirements. As a result, you generally don't need to be concerned about compatibility between data types and the conversions from one data type to another. However, understanding how ColdFusion evaluates data values and converts data between types can help you prevent errors and create code more effectively.
