Is there any function to determine the length of an integer string? 13 3655
strlen gives the length of string irrespective of its content (ie.
integer or character)

What is an integer string?
std::string has a function that returns its length.
If you have a variable of any of the integer types, you can turn the
number it represents into a string using a stringstream (you can even
choose decimal, hexadecimal or octal representation by using the
appropriate stream manipulators). Once you've done that, you can ask
the string how long it is.
If none of that helps, post some code to show what you are trying to
do.

Take the logrithm of the value (rounded down to an integer) then add
one.
Note that the base of the logrithm has to match the base used to
represent the value. For example, if the number is 100 decimal, the
equation would be:
Log10(100)+1 = 3
so 100 has 3 digits as a decimal number.

Spurious semicolon. It can go.
int main() { int s[100]; int c=0; int count=0; ifstream a; a.open("in.txt" );
selectionSort(s ,10);
There is nothing in s at the moment. What do you think selectionSort is
going to do? If it touches any of the uninitialised int varaibles in s
(which it does) then you have undefined behaviour. Which is bad.
while(a>>s[count] && !a.eof()) { count++; }
c=strlen(s);
If we ignore the problem call to selectionSort, it looks like you have
an int array s with the first count elements holding the values read
from in.txt. And if I've understood, you want to know the total number
of digits in all those ints.
Using the technique posted by Greg, change you while loop to
int total_digits = 0;
while(a>>s[count] && !a.eof())
{
total_digits += log10(s[count]) + 1;
count++;
}
You'll need to #include<math.h > to get the log10 function. And note
that this will count decimal digits.

The strlen() function works by searching the string for the special
text character '\0'. As 0 is a valid integer, and in no way special,
int arrays are not terminated in that way.
If size in important, either keep track of it or scrap arrays and use
vectors. At your level of skill, vectors are the better choice by far.

Use constructors and descriptive names.
selectionSort(s ,10);
Don't you want to sort *after* reading?
while(a>>s[count] && !a.eof())
This will fail if the file contains something else than integers.
{ count++; }
You could also do
while (in >> s[count++])
;
std::sort(s, s+count);
c=strlen(s);
See below.
return 0; }
in.txt contains: 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1

An "integer string" does not exist, it makes no sense. A string is a
sequence of characters, so that would be an "integer sequence of
characters". strlen() works with a sequence of char's, nothing else.
wcslen() works with a sequence of wchar_t's.
However, a sequence of ints may be a string (for example, an
implementation could have a character set, such as unicode, which would
be encoded on 32-bit unsigned ints), but in this case we would not call
this an "integer string" (because that's not what it is), but a "wide
character string" or something like that.
Semantically, you are not working on a "string", but on a container of
ints. Although both could be implemented the same way
(container-of-chars, container-of-ints), they are different.
IIUC, you want to determine the number of integers that were read from
the file (the "length" of your "string", or more specifically, the
number of elements in your container). You have several ways to do
that:
1) use your "count" variable
2) use a container
std::vector<int > v;
int temp=0;
while (in >> temp)
v.push_back(tem p);
int count = v.length();
3) use an "end" value, such as 0
int s[100] = {0};
// read into s
int count=0;
for (int i=0; s[i] != 0; ++i)
++count;
But that will work only if 0 is not a valid value.
4) Embed the number of elements in the file (as the first line for
example)
