How to convert String to Int in Kotlin?

by

You could call toInt() on your String instances:

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    for (str in args) {
        try {
            val parsedInt = str.toInt()
            println("The parsed int is $parsedInt")
        } catch (nfe: NumberFormatException) {
            // not a valid int
        }
    }
}

Or toIntOrNull() as an alternative:

for (str in args) {
    val parsedInt = str.toIntOrNull()
    if (parsedInt != null) {
        println("The parsed int is $parsedInt")
    } else {
        // not a valid int
    }
}

If you don’t care about the invalid values, then you could combine toIntOrNull() with the safe call operator and a scope function, for example:

for (str in args) {
    str.toIntOrNull()?.let {
        println("The parsed int is $it")
    }
}
