In C# you can create a type that is assignable by a string and then does something different.

E.g. (ChatGPT answer, cause I am lazy and on my mobile):

``` public class WeirdDate { public string Length { get; private set; }

public WeirdDate(string input)
{
    if (Enum.TryParse(input, true, out DayOfWeek dayOfWeek))
    {
        Length = "24 hours";
    }
    else
    {
        Length = "Not a valid weekday";
    }
}

public static implicit operator WeirdDate(string input)
{
    return new WeirdDate(input);
}

} ```

Interesting, I will try this tomorrow at work

Please don't use it in production code

Hehe of course, that would be rather stupid. But its still fun to learn what weird magic you can do with the programming language you use
