Finding a Specific Digit of a Number

Question

I\'m trying to find the nth digit of an integer of an arbitrary length. I was going to convert the integer to a string and use the character at index n...

Answer 1

number = 123456789
n = 5

tmp1 = (int)(number / 10^n);   // tmp1 = 12345
tmp2 = ((int)(tmp1/10))*10;    // tmp2 = 12340
digit = tmp1 - tmp2;           // digit = 5
