hi, found code snipet converting string int, works great numbers 5 digits after fails.

phil

code: [select]



viewcount="12345";
char this_char[viewcount.length() + 1];
viewcount.tochararray(this_char, sizeof(this_char));
int newcount = atoi(this_char);
serial.println(newcount);


maybe because int goes 32767. try using long variable , corresponding atol function.
