String to integer

[nick13579]

Is there a way to convert a string to an integer?

 

[Humayun]

use real() function(https://docs.yoyogames.com/source/dadiospice/002_reference/strings/real.html) function.

Ok thanks!

str = "0";
number = real(str);
//number = 0;

Also note that real converts to a number with decimals. So, real("8.72") will not result in an integer, but a float. If you suspect that the string might not contain an integer, use floor() or round() after that, like so: floor(real("8.72"))
