Converting string to int using C#

Question

I am using C# and I want to convert a string to int to verify name. For example ** or 12 is not a name. I just want to convert the string into ASCI

Answer 1

Converting back and forth is simple:

int i = int.Parse("42");
string s = i.ToString();

If you do not know that the input string is valid, use the int.TryParse() method.
