atoi(3) BSD Library Functions Manual atoi(3)
NAME
atoi, atoi_l -- convert ASCII string to integer
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h>
int
atoi(const char *str);
#include <xlocale.h>
int
atoi_l(const char *str, locale_t loc);
DESCRIPTION
The atoi() function converts the initial portion of the string pointed to
by str to int representation.
It is equivalent to:
(int)strtol(str, (char **)NULL, 10);
While the atoi() function uses the current locale, the atoi_l() function
may be passed a locale directly. See xlocale(3) for more information.
IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
The atoi() and atoi_l() functions are thread-safe and async-cancel-safe.
The atoi() and atoi_l() functions have been deprecated by strtol() and
strtol_l() and should not be used in new code.
ERRORS
The function atoi() need not affect the value of errno on an error.

ISO/IEC 9899:1990 (``ISO C90''), and ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (``ISO C99'').
