[c++ prog]

i'm new to c++....i'm making a project here but i have a problem with this: reading values as type char and converting it to type int...such that 54 can be read as '5' and '4' but after that it will be read into type int...can anyone please tell me how?

a char is nothing more than a small one-byte integer. To convert a char to an int use the assignment

char c = 'A';
int n = c;

Or if all you want to do is print the int value of the char, just typecast it

char c = 'A';
cout << (int)c;
