Responding to: ???'s previous message
Salaam Ragunathan,

Converting single digits from string (ASCII) into decimal is as simple as subtracting decimal 48 (0x30) from each digit.

Converting four digits into the single value of the 4-digit number is then just a matter of adding D1 + D2*10 + D3*100 + D4*1000.

Thus, in pseudocode,

for i = 0 - 3
{
D_i = string_number_i - 48
value = D_i*10^i
}

Good luck,

Joe
