the result value of some built-in functions such as
<code>min</code> or <code>max</code> applied to constant arguments,
<code>unsafe.Sizeof</code> applied to <a href="#Package_unsafe">certain values</a>,
<code>cap</code> or <code>len</code> applied to
<a href="#Length_and_capacity">some expressions</a>,
<code>real</code> and <code>imag</code> applied to a complex constant

All other conversions only change the type but not the representation
of <code>x</code>.

There is no linguistic mechanism to convert between pointers and integers.
