 * The argument to a bool cast must be integral type (boolean or integer); when used as a return
   type the viper function will return True or False objects.
 * If the argument is a Python object and the cast is ``ptr``, ``ptr``, ``ptr16`` or ``ptr32``,

+Writing to a pointer which points to a read-only object will lead to undefined behaviour.

 The following example illustrates the use of a ``ptr16`` cast to toggle pin X1 ``n`` times:
