You can do it character by character by subtracting the character '0' from each char.

I won't do it for you, but will give you a hint. The characters '0' through '9' are consecutive, thus if you have a character and want to convert it to a digit value, first ensure that it is a digit by comparing the ascii value to fall between the values of '0' and '9' and then subtract '0' from it (the ascii value, not the number).

eg:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. char ascii='9';
  2. int digit = ascii-'0'; /* digit now equals 9 */
  3.  
Hope this helps.

Hi, I need to convert a Binary value to Decimal. I've been told that the value is an unsigned one. How can I do this? I use memcpy into an unsigned char variable, but when I print the value I got a negative value. For example if I'm using the xd -c (Unix) on the file, I can see the value FFFFFFFFFFFFFFA2 which using the memcpy as described above I get -94. But the real value that I'd expect to get is a positive one.

Hi All: I know I am missing something easy but I can't find the problem! I have a program which reads an integer as input. The output of the program should be the sum of all the digits in the integer that was entered. So, if 353 was entered, the output should be 11.
