I'm working on a class project where I am supposed to determine how long it will take for someone to be fully vested in their pension. I have to take the time they started working as a string mm/yyyy and then calculate the date they will be fully vested. The number of years they have left can be an int but my problem is that I can't use charAt to get the numbers from mm/yyyy to do the math because it comes out in the ASCII values. If the input is 12 then the 1 will print as 97 or something after using charAt. Is there a way to convert back to the string from the ASCII numbers where I can still keep the first integer?

Show the code. Maybe your code is reading a string and while we could attempt string to integer why not input the number?
I'm reading the tutorial at https://www.javatpoint.com/how-to-get-input-from-user-in-java and it doesn't seem too hard.
