Answer 1

use this Method

private string toEnglishNumber(string input) {     string EnglishNumbers = "";      for (int i = 0; i < input.Length; i++)     {         if (Char.IsDigit(input[i]))         {             EnglishNumbers += char.GetNumericValue(input, i);         }         else         {             EnglishNumbers += input[i].ToString();         }                }     return EnglishNumbers; } 

Answer 2

Arabic digits like ١،٢،٣،٤ in unicode are encoded as characters in the range 1632 to 1641. Subtract the unicode for arabic zero (1632) from the unicode value of each arabic digit character to get their digital values. Multiply each digital value with its place value and sum the results to get the integer.

Alternatively use Regex.Replace to convert the string with Arabic digits into a string with decimal digits, then use Int.Parse to convert the result into an integer.
