How to convert an integer to a string [duplicate]

Question

I want to convert an integer to a string. I tried it this way but this didn't work

void foo()
{
    int y = 1;
    string x = static_cast<string>(y);

}

Answer 1

The std::to_string function should do it:

string x = std::to_string(y);

For the opposite, it's std::stoi:

int z = std::stoi(y, nullptr, 10);
