int       stoi( const std::string& str, std::size_t* pos = 0, int base = 10 ); int       stoi( const std::wstring& str, std::size_t* pos = 0, int base = 10 );	(1)	(since C++11)

Interprets a signed integer value in the string str.

1) calls std::strtol(str.c_str(), &ptr, base) or std::wcstol(str.c_str(), &ptr, base)

2) calls std::strtol(str.c_str(), &ptr, base) or std::wcstol(str.c_str(), &ptr, base)

3) calls std::strtoll(str.c_str(), &ptr, base) or std::wcstoll(str.c_str(), &ptr, base)

Function discards any whitespace characters (as identified by calling isspace()) until first non-whitespace character is found. Then it takes as many characters as possible to form a valid base-n (where n=base) integer number representation and converts them to an integer value. The valid integer value consists of the following parts:

• (optional) plus or minus sign
• (optional) prefix (0) indicating octal base (applies only when the base is 8 or ​0​)
• (optional) prefix (0x or 0X) indicating hexadecimal base (applies only when the base is 16 or ​0​)
• a sequence of digits

The set of valid digits for base-2 integer is 01, for base-3 integer is 012, and so on. For bases larger than 10, valid digits include alphabetic characters, starting from Aa for base-11 integer, to Zz for base-36 integer. The case of the characters is ignored.

Additional numeric formats may be accepted by the currently installed C locale.

If the value of base is ​0​, the numeric base is auto-detected: if the prefix is 0, the base is octal, if the prefix is 0x or 0X, the base is hexadecimal, otherwise the base is decimal.

If pos is passed a value other than 0 or nullptr, then a pointer ptr - internal to the conversion functions - will receive the address of the first unconverted character, and the index of that character will be calculated and stored in *pos.

Parameters

str	-	the string to convert
pos	-	address of an integer to store the index of the first unconverted character
base	-	the number base

Return value

The string converted to the specified signed integer type.

Exceptions

• std::invalid_argument if no conversion could be performed
• std::out_of_range if the converted value would fall out of the range of the result type or if the underlying function (std::strtol or std::strtoll) sets errno to ERANGE.

Example

Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
 
int main()
{
    std::string str1 = "45";
    std::string str2 = "3.14159";
    std::string str3 = "31337 with words";
    std::string str4 = "words and 2";
 
    int myint1 = std::stoi(str1);
    int myint2 = std::stoi(str2);
    int myint3 = std::stoi(str3);
    // error: 'std::invalid_argument'
    // int myint4 = std::stoi(str4);
 
    std::cout << "std::stoi(\"" << str1 << "\") is " << myint1 << '\n';
    std::cout << "std::stoi(\"" << str2 << "\") is " << myint2 << '\n';
    std::cout << "std::stoi(\"" << str3 << "\") is " << myint3 << '\n';
    //std::cout << "std::stoi(\"" << str4 << "\") is " << myint4 << '\n';
}

Output:

std::stoi("45") is 45
std::stoi("3.14159") is 3
std::stoi("31337 with words") is 31337
