"123" is a string of characters. 3 x 16-bit unicodes. int i=123 is stored internally as 32-bit binary at run-time as is new Integer( 123 ) in a protective object wrapper. Perhaps it is my age, but it is a long standing tradition to refer call the process as "converting character/a/alpha/ascii to binary". Number is a general term that includes byte, int, float, double, packed decimal, fixed length char numerics. (Think COBOL PL/I). In Java, Number is an abstract class with ten implementations. -- Roedy Green Canadian Mind Products http://mindprod.com The first 90% of the code accounts for the first 90% of the development time.
