 |
|
Is there any way to convert a string to a char/small integer?
Like atoi or strtoul, but for char/smallint.
If not, is there some type of casting to be done?

No, because the string might contain more than 1 char.
If you want, you can check the first character, string[0] or check if the string length is 1, but in this case its easier to just get a single character instead of a string.
What exacly are you trying to do?

It'd obvious if you knew what atoi and strtoul were.

So? What happens if there is more than an int in your string for atoi? It doesn't matter. I can check return values or use a loop, etc.
And you don't get what I mean-- I don't mean char as in a letter. I mean the numeric data type char (because an unsigned char is kinda what we know as a byte).
Like, converting the string "0xFF" to the unsigned char value 0xFF.
