Define operator overloading with general rules. Explain types conversion and write a program for overloading the assignment operator.

 Operator overloading is a feature in C++ that allows operators such as +, -, *, /, etc. to be redefined for custom classes or structures. The general rules for operator overloading are: Only existing operators can be overloaded. The overloaded operator must have at least one operand that is a user-defined type. The number and types of operands cannot be changed. The operator's precedence and associativity cannot be changed. Overloaded operators cannot have default arguments. Overloaded operators should behave in a way that is intuitive and consistent with the original operator's meaning Type conversion, also known as type casting, is the process of converting the data type of an object or variable to a different data type. It is a useful technique in programming that allows us to manipulate data in different ways. In C++, there are several types of type conversion, including: Implicit Type conversion: This type of conversion is performed automatically by the compiler when data...
