Converting String to Int with Swift
The application basically calculates acceleration by inputting Initial and final velocity and time and then use a formula to calculate acceleration. However, since the values in the text boxes are string, I am unable to convert them to integers.
@IBOutlet var txtBox1 : UITextField
@IBOutlet var txtBox2 : UITextField
@IBOutlet var txtBox3 : UITextField
@IBOutlet var lblAnswer : UILabel
@IBAction func btn1(sender : AnyObject) {
let answer1 = "The acceleration is"
var answer2 = txtBox1
var answer3 = txtBox2
var answer4 = txtBox3

Haven't tried but maybe you could cast the values likevar answer1 = Int(txtBox1.text)

If you string is suppose "23.0", then if you cast it to Int("23.0") it will return nil, for this case you first need to cast to Double/Float and then again cast to Int.

Basic Idea, note that this only works in Swift 1.x (check out ParaSara's answer to see how it works in Swift 2.x):
// toInt returns optional that's why we used a:Int?
let a:Int? = firstText.text.toInt() // firstText is UITextField
let b:Int? = secondText.text.toInt() // secondText is UITextField
// check a and b before unwrapping using !
if a && b {
var ans = a! + b!
answerLabel.text = "Answer is (ans)" // answerLabel ie UILabel
} else {
answerLabel.text = "Input values are not numeric"
}
Update for Swift 4
...
let a:Int? = Int(firstText.text) // firstText is UITextField
let b:Int? = Int(secondText.text) // secondText is UITextField
...
Thanks this works. However, I have an issue since I want the numbers to include floats too. Thanks again.

Update Answer for swift 2.0 :
toInt()
method is given a error. Because,In Swift 2.x, the .toInt()
function was removed from String. In replacement, Int now has an initializer that accepts a String:
let a:Int? = Int(firstText.text) // firstText is UITextField
let b:Int? = Int(secondText.text) // secondText is UITextField
Can i ask why i am getting an error when i omit the '?' char? Why do i need to state 'a' as an optional?

myString.toInt()
- convert the string value into int .
Swift 3.x
If you have an integer hiding inside a string, you can convertby using the integer's constructor, like this:
let myInt = Int(textField.text)
As with other data types (Float and Double) you can also convert by using NSString:
let myString = "556"
let myInt = (myString as NSString).integerValue

You wanna use NSNumberFormatter().numberFromString(yourNumberString)
. It's great because it returns an an optional that you can then test with an "if let" to determine if the conversion was successful.
eg.
var myString = "(10)"
if let myNumber = NSNumberFormatter().numberFromString(myString) {
var myInt = myNumber.integerValue
// do what you need to do with myInt
} else {
// what ever error code you need to write
}

I just changed it to 'myNumber.integerValue' since Xcode 7 won't build with 'intValue'. The latter is of Int32 value

swift 4.0
let stringNumber = "123"
let number = Int(stringNumber) //here number is of type "Int?"
//using Forced Unwrapping
if number != nil {
//string is converted to Int
}
you could also use Optional Binding other than forced binding.
eg:
if let number = Int(stringNumber) {
// number is of type Int
}
add a comment |
//Xcode 8.1 and swift 3.0
We can also handle it by Optional Binding, Simply
let occur = "10"
if let occ = Int(occur) {
print("By optional binding :", occ*2) // 20
}

Swift 3
The simplest and more secure way is:
@IBOutlet var textFieldA : UITextField
@IBOutlet var textFieldB : UITextField
@IBOutlet var answerLabel : UILabel
@IBAction func calculate(sender : AnyObject) {
if let intValueA = Int(textFieldA),
let intValueB = Int(textFieldB) {
let result = intValueA + intValueB
answerLabel.text = "The acceleration is (result)"
}
else {
answerLabel.text = "The value (intValueA) and/or (intValueB) are not a valid integer value"
}
}
Avoid invalid values setting keyboard type to number pad:
textFieldA.keyboardType = .numberPad
textFieldB.keyboardType = .numberPad
add a comment |
In Swift 4:
extension String {
var numberValue:NSNumber? {
let formatter = NumberFormatter()
formatter.numberStyle = .decimal
return formatter.number(from: self)
}
}
let someFloat = "12".numberValue

i have made a simple program, where you have 2 txt field you take input form the user and add them to make it simpler to understand please find the code below.
@IBOutlet weak var result: UILabel!
@IBOutlet weak var one: UITextField!
@IBOutlet weak var two: UITextField!
@IBAction func add(sender: AnyObject) {
let count = Int(one.text!)
let cal = Int(two.text!)
let sum = count! + cal!
result.text = "Sum is (sum)"
}
hope this helps.

About int() and Swift 2.x: if you get a nil value after conversion check if you try to convert a string with a big number (for example: 1073741824), in this case try:
let bytesInternet : Int64 = Int64(bytesInternetString)!

Latest swift3 this code is simply to convert string to int
let myString = "556"
let myInt = Int(myString)
add a comment |
Swift 3.0
Try this, you don't need to check for any condition I have done everything just use this function. Send anything string, number, float, double ,etc,. you get a number as a value or 0 if it is unable to convert your value
Function:
func getNumber(number: Any?) -> NSNumber {
guard let statusNumber:NSNumber = number as? NSNumber else
{
guard let statString:String = number as? String else
{
return 0
}
if let myInteger = Int(statString)
{
return NSNumber(value:myInteger)
}
else{
return 0
}
}
return statusNumber
}
Usage:
Add the above function in code and to convert use
let myNumber = getNumber(number: myString)
if the myString
has a number or string it returns the number else it returns 0
Example 1:
let number:String = "9834"
print("printing number (getNumber(number: number))")
Output: printing number 9834
Example 2:
let number:Double = 9834
print("printing number (getNumber(number: number))")
Output: printing number 9834
Example 3:
let number = 9834
print("printing number (getNumber(number: number))")
Output: printing number 9834

In Swift 4.2 and Xcode 10.1
let string:String = "789"
let intValue:Int = Int(string)!
print(intValue)
let integerValue:Int = 789
let stringValue:String = String(integerValue)
//OR
//let stringValue:String = "(integerValue)"
print(stringValue)
add a comment |
Because a string might contain non-numerical characters you should use a guard
to protect the operation. Example:
guard let labelInt:Int = Int(labelString) else {
return
}
useLabelInt()
add a comment |
Use this:
// get the values from text boxes
let a:Double = firstText.text.bridgeToObjectiveC().doubleValue
let b:Double = secondText.text.bridgeToObjectiveC().doubleValue
// we checking against 0.0, because above function return 0.0 if it gets failed to convert
if (a != 0.0) && (b != 0.0) {
var ans = a + b
answerLabel.text = "Answer is (ans)"
} else {
answerLabel.text = "Input values are not numberic"
}
OR
Make your UITextField KeyboardType as DecimalTab from your XIB or storyboard, and remove any if condition for doing any calculation, ie.
var ans = a + b
answerLabel.text = "Answer is (ans)"
Because keyboard type is DecimalPad there is no chance to enter other 0-9 or .
Hope this help !!

In Swift 2.x, the .toInt() function was removed from String. In replacement, Int now has an initializer that accepts a String
Int(myString)
In your case, you could use Int(textField.text!) insted of textField.text!.toInt()
Swift 1.x
let myString: String = "256"
let myInt: Int? = myString.toInt()
Swift 2.x, 3.x
let myString: String = "256"
let myInt: Int? = Int(myString)

for Alternative solution. You can use extension a native type. You can test with playground.
extension String {
func add(a: Int) -> Int? {
if let b = Int(self) {
return b + a
}
else {
return nil
}
}
}

My solution is to have a general extension for string to int conversion.
extension String {
// default: it is a number suitable for your project if the string is not an integer
func toInt(default: Int) -> Int {
if let result = Int(self) {
return result
}
else {
return default
}
}
}

func addition(arrayString: [Any?]) -> Int? {

As of swift 3, I have to force my #%@! string & int with a "!" otherwise it just doesn't work.
For example:
let prefs = UserDefaults.standard
var counter: String!
counter = prefs.string(forKey:"counter")
print("counter: (counter!)")
var counterInt = Int(counter!)
counterInt = counterInt! + 1
print("counterInt: (counterInt!)")
OUTPUT:
counter: 1
counterInt: 2
Can't you just dovar counterInt = counter.map { Int($0) }
? Wherecounter
whould be aString?
– Martin
Oct 19 '17 at 16:34
@Martin - No. ? makes its optional and thus adds the word "optional" to the counter string.
– Sam B
Oct 19 '17 at 22:27
IMHO, you should not force unwrap your optionals. Prefer useguard
andif let
statements

Question : string "4.0000" can not be convert into integer using Int("4.000")?
Answer : Int() check string is integer or not if yes then give you integer and otherwise nil. but Float or Double can convert any number string to respective Float or Double without giving nil. Example if you have "45" integer string but using Float("45") gives you 45.0 float value or using Double("4567") gives you 45.0.
Solution : NSString(string: "45.000").integerValue or Int(Float("45.000")!)! to get correct result.
add a comment |
I recently got the same issue. Below solution is work for me:
let strValue = "123"
let result = (strValue as NSString).integerValue
add a comment |
An Int in Swift contains an initializer that accepts a String. It returns an optional Int? as the conversion can fail if the string contains not a number.
By using an if let statement you can validate whether the conversion succeeded.
So your code become something like this:
@IBOutlet var txtBox1 : UITextField
@IBOutlet var txtBox2 : UITextField
@IBOutlet var txtBox3 : UITextField
@IBOutlet var lblAnswer : UILabel
@IBAction func btn1(sender : AnyObject) {
let answer1 = "The acceleration is"
var answer2 = txtBox1
var answer3 = txtBox2
var answer4 = txtBox3
if let intAnswer = Int(txtBox1.text) {
// Correctly converted
}
}

Thanks this works. However, I have an issue since I want the numbers to include floats too. Thanks again.

If you need floats (and you really really want Double, not float), toInt() will not do it. Could you use your imagination and the available documentation to find a suitable function?

This solution was only right for Swift and not for Swift2. Now you should use: Int(firstText.text)

Update Answer for swift 2.0 :
toInt()
method is given a error. Because,In Swift 2.x, the .toInt()
function was removed from String. In replacement, Int now has an initializer that accepts a String:
let a:Int? = Int(firstText.text) // firstText is UITextField
let b:Int? = Int(secondText.text) // secondText is UITextField
Can i ask why i am getting an error when i omit the '?' char? Why do i need to state 'a' as an optional?

myString.toInt()
- convert the string value into int .
Swift 3.x
If you have an integer hiding inside a string, you can convertby using the integer's constructor, like this:
let myInt = Int(textField.text)
As with other data types (Float and Double) you can also convert by using NSString:
let myString = "556"
let myInt = (myString as NSString).integerValue

You wanna use NSNumberFormatter().numberFromString(yourNumberString)
. It's great because it returns an an optional that you can then test with an "if let" to determine if the conversion was successful.
eg.
var myString = "(10)"
if let myNumber = NSNumberFormatter().numberFromString(myString) {
var myInt = myNumber.integerValue
// do what you need to do with myInt
} else {
// what ever error code you need to write
}

I just changed it to 'myNumber.integerValue' since Xcode 7 won't build with 'intValue'. The latter is of Int32 value

swift 4.0
let stringNumber = "123"
let number = Int(stringNumber) //here number is of type "Int?"
//using Forced Unwrapping
if number != nil {
//string is converted to Int
}
you could also use Optional Binding other than forced binding.
eg:
if let number = Int(stringNumber) {
// number is of type Int

Swift 3
The simplest and more secure way is:
@IBOutlet var textFieldA : UITextField
@IBOutlet var textFieldB : UITextField
@IBOutlet var answerLabel : UILabel
@IBAction func calculate(sender : AnyObject) {
if let intValueA = Int(textFieldA),
let intValueB = Int(textFieldB) {
let result = intValueA + intValueB
answerLabel.text = "The acceleration is (result)"
}

i have made a simple program, where you have 2 txt field you take input form the user and add them to make it simpler to understand please find the code below.
@IBOutlet weak var result: UILabel!
@IBOutlet weak var one: UITextField!
@IBOutlet weak var two: UITextField!
@IBAction func add(sender: AnyObject) {
let count = Int(one.text!)
let cal = Int(two.text!)
let sum = count! + cal!
result.text = "Sum is (sum)"
}
hope this helps.

About int() and Swift 2.x: if you get a nil value after conversion check if you try to convert a string with a big number (for example: 1073741824), in this case try:
let bytesInternet : Int64 = Int64(bytesInternetString)!

Thank you this worked for my case. Int() was working for me with 16 digit numbers but recently started to fail.

Swift 3.0
Try this, you don't need to check for any condition I have done everything just use this function. Send anything string, number, float, double ,etc,. you get a number as a value or 0 if it is unable to convert your value
Function:
func getNumber(number: Any?) -> NSNumber {
guard let statusNumber:NSNumber = number as? NSNumber else
{
guard let statString:String = number as? String else
{
return 0
}
if let myInteger = Int(statString)
{
return NSNumber(value:myInteger)
}
else{
return 0
}
}
return statusNumber
}
Usage:
Add the above function in code and to convert use
let myNumber = getNumber(number: myString)
if the myString
has a number or string it returns the number else it returns 0
Example 1:
let number:String = "9834"
print("printing number (getNumber(number: number))")
Output: printing number 9834
Example 2:
let number:Double = 9834
print("printing number (getNumber(number: number))")
Output: printing number 9834
Example 3:
let number = 9834
print("printing number (getNumber(number: number))")
Output: printing number 9834

Because a string might contain non-numerical characters you should use a guard
to protect the operation. Example:
guard let labelInt:Int = Int(labelString) else {
return
}
useLabelInt()

Use this:
// get the values from text boxes
let a:Double = firstText.text.bridgeToObjectiveC().doubleValue
let b:Double = secondText.text.bridgeToObjectiveC().doubleValue
// we checking against 0.0, because above function return 0.0 if it gets failed to convert
if (a != 0.0) && (b != 0.0) {
var ans = a + b
answerLabel.text = "Answer is (ans)"
} else {
answerLabel.text = "Input values are not numberic"
}
OR
Make your UITextField KeyboardType as DecimalTab from your XIB or storyboard, and remove any if condition for doing any calculation, ie.
var ans = a + b
answerLabel.text = "Answer is (ans)"
Because keyboard type is DecimalPad there is no chance to enter other 0-9 or .
Hope this help !!

In Swift 2.x, the .toInt() function was removed from String. In replacement, Int now has an initializer that accepts a String
Int(myString)
In your case, you could use Int(textField.text!) insted of textField.text!.toInt()
Swift 1.x
let myString: String = "256"
let myInt: Int? = myString.toInt()
Swift 2.x, 3.x
let myString: String = "256"
let myInt: Int? = Int(myString)

My solution is to have a general extension for string to int conversion.
extension String {
// default: it is a number suitable for your project if the string is not an integer
func toInt(default: Int) -> Int {
if let result = Int(self) {
return result
}
else {
return default
}
}
}

As of swift 3, I have to force my #%@! string & int with a "!" otherwise it just doesn't work.
For example:
let prefs = UserDefaults.standard
var counter: String!
counter = prefs.string(forKey:"counter")
print("counter: (counter!)")
var counterInt = Int(counter!)
counterInt = counterInt! + 1
print("counterInt: (counterInt!)")
OUTPUT:
counter: 1
counterInt: 2
Can't you just dovar counterInt = counter.map { Int($0) }
? Wherecounter
whould be aString?

@Martin - No. ? makes its optional and thus adds the word "optional" to the counter string.

IMHO, you should not force unwrap your optionals. Prefer useguard
andif let
statements

Question : string "4.0000" can not be convert into integer using Int("4.000")?
Answer : Int() check string is integer or not if yes then give you integer and otherwise nil. but Float or Double can convert any number string to respective Float or Double without giving nil. Example if you have "45" integer string but using Float("45") gives you 45.0 float value or using Double("4567") gives you 45.0.
Solution : NSString(string: "45.000").integerValue or Int(Float("45.000")!)! to get correct result.

An Int in Swift contains an initializer that accepts a String. It returns an optional Int? as the conversion can fail if the string contains not a number.
By using an if let statement you can validate whether the conversion succeeded.
So your code become something like this:
@IBOutlet var txtBox1 : UITextField
@IBOutlet var txtBox2 : UITextField
@IBOutlet var txtBox3 : UITextField
@IBOutlet var lblAnswer : UILabel
@IBAction func btn1(sender : AnyObject) {
let answer1 = "The acceleration is"
var answer2 = txtBox1
var answer3 = txtBox2
var answer4 = txtBox3
if let intAnswer = Int(txtBox1.text) {
// Correctly converted
}
}

let intValue = strValue as! Int
var intValueFromString:Int = strValue as! Int
or

Haven't tried but maybe you could cast the values like
var answer1 = Int(txtBox1.text)

If you string is suppose "23.0", then if you cast it to Int("23.0") it will return nil, for this case you first need to cast to Double/Float and then again cast to Int.
