How do I determine the length of an integer?
Hello,
I have an int variable and I want to determine its length (i.e. I want the int to be of 4 characters).
I understand how to determine the length of a String, i.e.
------------------------------------
String text
int temptext = text.length();
------------------------------------
Can this be done similar with an int variable or would I have to convert the int to a String (and then determine its length) and then back to an int?
Thanks for any advice :-)

You could simply divide by 999 (in case of a four "character" int and check if the result is less then 1, if it is, the original int was 4 or less "characters"
-
it would be three or less characters if dividing by 999 results in a number less than one. 1000/999 > 1
-
int x = 999;
String temp = x + "";
int length = temp.length();

Thanks for all the replies - Phaelax method worked for me :-)
Cheers all
