Converting Integers to string

I know this is a stupid question but i am quite new to C. How do I convert Integers to Array of Char???

I know how to convert from an Array of Chars using the sscan

You can use sprintf...

Code:

---

int      a;
char      text[255];

sprintf( text, "%d", a );

---

Also, you can look up a function called "itoa".

you should try an explicit conversion, the reason for this over atoi or itoa is that you can use it on allmost every possible variable. how it works:

Code:

---

int y;
CString z;

y = 4;
z = "2";

if (blnItoA == TRUE)
{
    z = (CString) y;
    // Now z == "4"
}
else
{
    y = (int) z;
    // Now y == 2
}

---

that shouldn't be too tough...

I'm sorry, I know some people hate it when people ask questions half way through a thread, but what's the difference between (int) and static_cast<int> ?

In the C++ book I've got it says you should use the latter in C++, but doesn't really give a reason.

eh, well, i don't know the difference. in fact, i've never heard of static_cast<int>, but i'm not doing this for that long either. just use the (int) method, that way you're sure it works (i use it all the time in VC++)
