Explanation

Casting is the process of converting a value from one data type to another. This can be implicit (safe conversion) or explicit (requiring a cast operator). Boxing specifically refers to converting a value type to a reference type, which is a special case of type conversion. Data conversion is a broader term that includes casting.
