Problem:
You want to convert an object into a different type. For example, you want to turn a simple string into a URI object.
Solution:
Use the transformation operators, from and as:
$uri = URI.new($my_string); # uses the default constructor
$uri = URI from $my_string; # uses the 'string' transformation
$uri = $my_string as URI; # same thing
