I am relatively new to Fortran and could not figure out how I can convert a string to an integer. An example:
integer x
character*5 st
st = '12abo'
x = st(1:2)
but seemingly this does not work. Any ideas?

Have a look at the read statement (analogous as what one would do in C with sscanf). – albert Jan 30 '19 at 10:15

@albert I am sorry, what do you mean? – Huzo Jan 30 '19 at 10:15

1Study the read statement and the format statement (something like `read(st,'(I2)') x`) – albert Jan 30 '19 at 10:16
