I used Sscanf to do this. @abiola89: could you tell me what is the difference between the two? or just tell me which one is better( more efficient).Many thanks!

Sscanf uses Atoi once it has parsed the format string and figured out the type of the corresponding parameter. Using Atoi directly bypasses that as long as you know you have the string representation of an int.
