combining two chars to one int

Projects Programming

Hello

basically i'm trying to convert two chars received from an XBee.

so i have char[0] and char[1]

say this gives me 2 and 3.

I need to combine them into an int which makes 23.

any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

Assuming that your char array holds the ASCII values of the 2 digits :

int theInt = ( 10 * (char[0] - '0' ) ) + char[1] - '0';

You could use:

int number = 10*(char[0] - '0') + char[1] - '0';

(given that char[0] == '2', and not 2 (uint8_t))

Or if the array is null-terminated (i.e. char[2] == '\0'):

int number = atoi(char);
