Often it is necessary to convert a Fortran character string into a number
(integer or real) or vice versa. For example, routine IGMENU returns some
parameters as character strings and it is often necessary to convert these
into numbers. Also, to print graphically the result of a computation with
ITX it is necessary to convert a number into a character string. The
routines described in this paragraph allow these kinds of conversions.
Character to integer

|CALL IZCTOR (CHVAL,RVAL*) |
+--------------------------+
Action: Converts the character string CHVAL into the real RVAL.
Parameter Description:
- CHVAL
- Character string.
- RVAL
- Real.
Integer to character
+--------------------------+
