    Question hmmm char string to variable double or int

    Code:
    // this 3 are user input
    char szNum1[];
    char szNum2[];
    char szNum3[];
    after the user input for example 3, 21 and 25

    i need to make this strings into int or double variables, so i can use them to make some math operations after.

    I have tryed this because this is what they though me, but looks like with strings wont work :P

    Code:
    szNum1 = static_cast<double>(szNum1);
    szNum2 = static_cast<double>(szNum2);
    szNum3 = static_cast<double>(szNum3);
    any idea of how I can make this work guys?

    Thank you for your time.

    You need to perform a conversion. Casting will only cause you grief.
    My best code is written with the delete key.
