nIf we do not want a constructor taking a single argument to also define an implicit conversion function, we can prevent that by preceding the constructor declaration with the keyword explicit.
nThe application is now required to provide explicit type
casts in order to convert a char*
to a name object.
nUsing a constructor as a
conversion function allows us to
convert an object of some other type to an object of a class. They do not allow us to define a conversion from a class to some other built-in type or class.
nTo do so, we must define a type conversion function.
