Hello,

I need to read a number from a .txt file which is in UTF-8 format.

In my program I'm reading this number as a string from .txt file.

Then using atoi() to convert it to integer. But for any number atoi() is giving output as 0.

I understand that in Linux default encoding format is UTF-8 and according to information I received from google search atoi() should work in this case.

Is there any way to make this work? or any other way or logic to convert UTF-8 string(which is always going to consist numbers in my case)to integer.

As the function has existed for some time and I doubt it is having issues, perhaps you could provide the code and example that it does not work with to give a clearer picture.
