char to int?

**Vicious** · 05-26-2003

I am working on a "HighScore" system for my game.... now.. the thing is.. I want to say

Code:

if(newscore > oldscore)
{
  update_score();
}

but newscore is an int and oldscore is a char, how can I change the char temporarily to an int? or is there a better way?

if (newscore > ((int)oldscore))
