String to integer - Please HELP

[Realazad]

This may probably be too trivial but I can not think anymore and I am completely stuck. This is the problem -

I am receiving a string (5 digits long) from another computer (over a socket), and I need to convert it to an integer like this -

In String- "00275"
Understand it as integer 275

and vice-versa as

Out integer - 483
send as string "00483"

I tried atoi and itoa but they strip the zeros (which I definitely need during communication).

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
Azad

You already have the atoi() working ok when receiving strings : 00275 -> 275 Ok ?


An easy (but somewhat expensive) way to do it the other way :
char buf[6];
int intval = 275;
sprintf(buf, "%05d", intval);

will produce "00275" in buf (With a binary zero as terminator in the last byte).
