Greetings; Here is my question : how, in c++ does one convert an int,float,double or long to a char*,char[], or a string ? (Being a java coder, i am used to all those lovely conversions, but I can''t seem to find them in c++) As always, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, JP. ============================================== I feel like a kid in some kind of store... ============================================== www.thejpsystem.com

sprintf would be one way. The conversion routines such as itoa would be another.

Thanks, JP.

There''s also itoa(), but it seems to be more of a pain in the ass than sprintf.

To convert from character array to number, atoi or atof would be your choice.

or sscanf()..

I used to use itoa, but I wasn''t able to find an ftoa so I jumped to sprintf(), fprintf(), sscanf() and fscanf(). they''re fare more easier to handle. but if you want convertions to other than base 10 look at itoa...
