I tried the following function to conver a String to an Integer. #lang typed/racket (: myconversion (-> String Integer)) (define (myconversion str) (string->number str))
The error given is : Type Checker: type mismatch expected: Integer given: (U Complex False) in: (string->number str) I guess this is because a number is not an Integer. How to proceed? I found the following code on internet , but this looks like a real overkill for this simple problem , (: numerical-char->integer (-> Char Integer))(define (numerical-char->integer char) (let ([num (- (char->integer char) 48)]) ; 48 = (char->integer #\0) (if (or (< num 0) (> num 9)) (raise 'non-numerical-char #t) num))) (: string->integer (-> String Integer))(define (string->integer str) (let ([char-list (string->list str)]) (if (null? char-list) (raise 'empty-string #t) (foldl (λ([x : Integer] [y : Integer]) (+ (* y 10) x)) 0 (map numerical-char->integer char-list))))) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
