Is it possible to cast i32 to str?

[LargeCat]

    let a: &str = "123";
    let b: i32 = 123;

how to cast i32 to &str?

There's a method called to_string which will convert it to a String.

let a: i32 = 123;
let b = a.to_string();

whether it can be type: &str ?

let b = a.to_string(); it's String.

A reference to String is automatically converted to &str by the compiler. So you can do this:

fn takes_str(value: &str) {
    println!("Value is: {}", value);
}

fn main() {
    let a: i32 = 123;
    let b = a.to_string();
    
    takes_str(&b);
}

If you want the conversion to &str to be explicit, then you can also call String::as_str.

fn main() {
    let a: i32 = 123;
    let b = a.to_string();
    
    takes_str(b.as_str());
}

really perfect, thanks so much.
