array of ascii number to integer number?
PostPosted: Mon Jan 19, 2004 10:11 pm     Reply with quote

Hi,

Anybody in the community have an idea on how to convert an array of ascii number to integer?

e.g.
array1[0]=2;
array1[1]=3;
array1[2]=5;

reult would be integer number 235.

Any help will do.

Thnx
Paolino

I think you can act as follow:

int result;

// your code here

result=array1[0]*100+array1[1]*10+array1[2];

// your code here

Obviously, this code works for unsigned int (see CCS manual for data types) and/or for 16/32 bit integer, not for signed ones...

Best regards,

Paolo.

Look in the manual!

Exclamation There is a standard C function, not specific to CCS, but it is in the CCS manual.

Atoi() converts a string, eg. an array containing ASCII into an integer.
Code:
#include <stdlib.h>
char string[4];
int x;

strcpy(string,"123");
x = atoi(string);         // x is now 123

Only difference to what you described is that this works with variable length strings which must be terminated with a zero (binary zero, not '0').

since ascii 0 = 48dec, subtracting 48 from the value in the array before multiplying will yield the better result ;)
result=(array1[0]-48)*100+(array1[1]-48)*10+(array1[2]-48);
