C#.NET — Data type rules: choose the correct set of statements. Assigning an integer literal to a byte variable that exceeds byte range causes a compilation error. Non-literal numeric types of larger storage size cannot be implicitly converted to byte. Byte cannot be implicitly converted to float. A char can be implicitly converted only to int. We can cast integral character codes explicitly.

Introduction / Context:This question checks your knowledge of implicit and explicit numeric conversions in C#, especially narrowing versus widening conversions and how literals are treated.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Literals may undergo constant-expression checks for range when assigned to smaller types.
• Narrowing conversions from variables of larger types are not implicit.
• Widening conversions (e.g., byte to float) are implicit.

Concept / Approach:Rule of thumb: If the target type can represent all values of the source type, the conversion may be implicit (widening). Otherwise, an explicit cast is needed (narrowing). The compiler also performs constant-expression checks for literals.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Verification / Alternative check:Compile small snippets demonstrating byte b = 3.14f; (error) vs float f = (byte)200; (works with cast) vs float f2 = (byte)10; (implicit allowed as widening).

Why Other Options Are Wrong:Any set including (3) or (4) is incorrect due to misunderstanding widening rules and char conversions.

Common Pitfalls:Assuming all numeric types interconvert implicitly; ignoring constant-expression range checks for literals.

Final Answer:1, 2, 5
