Given the String "welcome", what do you want to convert it to?
What do you want to print out?
i want to change to int.
Do you realise how vague your answer is. What int. The String "welcome" has no meaningful int value. Do you want its length? A sum of the ascii values? Some other highly complicated algorithm? What??????
Can you give a concrete answer. Like "welcome" should convert to 435643429.i want to change to int.
Then explain the algorithm that you used to make that conversion:
first letter * 23 + second letter *11 + ....
