-The most efficient and secure way to use a `CString` object in called functions is to pass a `CString` object to the function. Despite the name, a `CString` object doesn't store a string internally as a C-style string that has a `NULL` terminator. Instead, a `CString` object keeps careful track of the number of characters it has. Having `CString` provide a `LPCTSTR` pointer to a `NULL`-terminated string is a small amount of work that can become significant if your code has to do it constantly. The result is temporary because any change to the `CString` contents invalidates old copies of the `LPCTSTR` pointer.

The result is temporary because any change to the `CString` contents invalidates old copies of the `LPCTSTR` pointer.
 
 It does make sense in some cases to provide a C-style string. For example, there can be a situation where a called function is written in C and doesn't support objects. In this case, coerce the `CString` parameter to `LPCTSTR`, and the function will get a C-style `NULL`-terminated string. You can also go the other direction and create a `CString` object by using the `CString` constructor that accepts a C-style string parameter.

 A cast is required to convert an **`int`** to a scoped or unscoped enumerator. However, you can promote an unscoped enumerator to an integer value without a cast.
 
 ```cpp
-int account_num = Hearts; //OK if Hearts is in a unscoped enum
+int account_num = Hearts; //OK if Hearts is in an unscoped enum
 ```
 
 Using implicit conversions in this way can lead to unintended side-effects. To help eliminate programming errors associated with unscoped enums, scoped enum values are strongly typed. Scoped enumerators must be qualified by the enum type name (identifier) and can't be implicitly converted, as shown in the following example:
