atol()
Syntax:
#include <stdlib.h> long atol( const char *str );
Description:
The function atol() converts str into a long, then returns that value. atol() will read from str until it finds any character that should not be in a long. The resulting truncated value is then converted and returned.
Example:
x = atol( "1024.0001" ); RESULT: x set to 1024L.
