I have never heard of a conversion character. Do you mean a conversion operator? Or maybe a conversion constructor?

This looks like the values you use in a printf() or scanf(). You know, where %c is a char and %d is and integer. Maybe that's what was meant.

I'm just guessing.

It appears to be a poor question.
