Thread: Typecasting - (Integer to String)

I am trying to figure out how to convert a integer to a string. I've been told there is a function to do this. If anyone can help that would be great.

Thanks

There are several ways to convert an integer to a string. One common C++ way to do it is using stringstreams:

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <sstream>

int main()
{
    int i = 10;
    std::ostringstream theStream;
    theStream << i << " + " << 5 << " = " << i+5;
    std::string theString = theStream.str();
    std::cout << theString << std::endl;
}

Thanks alot for the help!!! I will let you know how it works out.

Thanks
