Converting the strtok output to integer

Hi!

I'm a beginner and I'm trying to figure out how to store the result of strtok() in a Array of integers...

If I'm not mistaken, strtok brokens the string into tokens, returning a pointer to this tokens... So, if this pointer points to strings, can I use this function directly as an argument for the function atoi()?

I've tried to do this, but he results printed are zeros.

Here follows the relevant section of my code:

Code:

while(fgets(line,sizeof line,fread) != NULL)
        {
            temp = strtok(line,delims);
            while (cont <= 40)
            {
               cont++;

               for (i=ID; i<=Pattern; i++)
               {
                    if (i==ID)
                    {
                        Node[cont] = atoi(temp);            
                        printf("%d \n", Node[cont]);
                        temp = strtok(NULL, delims);
                    }
               }


            }

Thanks in advance

Add something like
printf("%s\n", temp);

or use the debugger to step through the code and examine the variables as you execute each line of code.

Unfortunately strtok() does more than just provide pointers into a string. It also inserts nulls breaking the main string into a group of smaller strings in the process. Yes, your original string is altered by this process and is thus, useless as a whole after.

If you want to store the pointers, store them as pointers...

Code:

char *tokens[100] = {NULL};

Then assign the results of strtok() to the array in ascending order.

Btw, there's a standard function called fread.
