<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 579093 by <a href="/recipes/users/4173351/">Vasudev Ram</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/formats/">formats</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/numbers/">numbers</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/numerical/">numerical</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/python/">python</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/python2/">python2</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/representation/">representation</a>). </p> <p>This recipe shows how to convert numeric strings into integers, i.e. it emulates the Python int() function - partially. It does not handle negative numbers, floating point numbers, or numbers in other bases than decimal. It is only meant as a simple demo of the steps by which a string containing an integer value, is converted into an actual integer, in Python (and similarly, in other languages).</p>

The recipe uses Python, the Peewee ORM and the xtopdf toolkit for PDF creation.</p>
