✅ Difference between explicit and implicit operators

Hello there. What's the difference between defining an implicit and explicit operator? I would like to know the difference between

public static implicit operator JsonValue(JsonArray jarray) => jarray.AsJsonValue();

public static implicit operator JsonValue(JsonArray jarray) => jarray.AsJsonValue();

And

public static explicit operator JsonValue(JsonArray jarray) => jarray.AsJsonValue();

public static explicit operator JsonValue(JsonArray jarray) => jarray.AsJsonValue();

It's in the docs

basically, whether it happens implicitly or explicitly

Angius•2mo ago

But tl;dr would be

var n = new MyNumber();
int a = n; // implicit
int b = (int)n; // explicit

var n = new MyNumber();
int a = n; // implicit
int b = (int)n; // explicit

oh, I see. explicit operators requires the casting syntax

Angius•2mo ago

Assuming MyNumber has cast operators to int
