Remarks
Use to ensure that the final return value from a script is cast to an expected type in an Arcade-consistent manner. For more information on the casting behavior for each type, see ArcadeExpressionReturnType. Only types to which a value can be cast are available in ArcadeExpressionReturnType. Other types, such as GeoElement, should be accessed via the result property. An exception is not thrown when casting fails. Instead, a type-specific error value is returned whose value depends on the type of cast attempted.
