- Method Detail
  - convert
```
public Token convert(Token t)
              throws IllegalActionException
```
    Description copied from class: BaseType
    
    Convert the specified token to a token having the type represented by this object.
    
    Specified by:
    
    convert in interface Type
    
    Specified by:
    
    convert in class BaseType
    
    Parameters:
    
    t - A token.
    
    Returns:
    
    A token.
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalActionException - If lossless conversion cannot be done.
  - getTypeHash
```
public int getTypeHash()
```
    Description copied from class: BaseType
    
    Return a perfect hash for this type. This number corresponds uniquely to a particular type, and is used to improve performance of certain operations in the TypeLattice class. All instances of a particular type (e.g. integer array) must return the same number. Types that return HASH_INVALID will not have results in TypeLattice cached. Note that it is safer to return HASH_INVALID, than to return a number that is not unique, or different number for the same type from different instances. This base class returns HASH_INVALID.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getTypeHash in interface Type
    
    Overrides:
    
    getTypeHash in class BaseType
    
    Returns:
    
    A number greater than or equal to 0, or HASH_INVALID.
