function resp = cast(rn,datatype,siz)
%CAST  Returns an object configured for a predefined target data type
%   O = CAST(MM,TYPE) - Defines the numeric representation to be
%   applied to the register object O.  The TYPE input defines 
%   some common data types.  This method coppies the properties of 
%   MM object to O and adjusts the properties of O to 
%   match the specified TYPE.  As a result, future READ/WRITE operations 
%   will apply the appropriate data conversion to implement the numeric 
%   representation. For uncommon datatypes, it is possible to 
%   directly modify the O properties, but generally it is better 
%   to use the CAST method.
% 
%   O = CAST(MM,TYPE,SIZE) - Does an additional reshaping - adjusts the 
%   'size' property - of the O object.
%
%   Note: SIZE is always 1 for register objects.
