I've written a program and am reading data from a file using the
fread_line command.
~the data in the file line by line goes like
1
3
4
Merlin

Pamela

5
Name
Location
etc, each user record is 5 lines. I can read the lines in okay with fread_line,
but I need to convert the numbers from character strings to integers.
Is there a command to convert a string to an integer or
is there an easier way to do it?
