Android Question Convert received text to numbers

[IslamQabel]

Hi..
I am sending numbers from micro-controller as text and read it in my app as text, the question is...How to convert received numbers which is text to real number ..
for example:

send "12" and receive it as "12"...i want to convert it to 12 (number) which can be recognized by B4A as a number
thanks

dim text as string = "12"
dim value as int = text

or maybe just

dim value as int = "12"

.i want to convert it to 12 (number)

Dim stVar As String="12"
    Dim intVar As Int =stVar   
    Log(intVar) 'displays 12
    Log(intVar/3) 'displays 4

note that the received text is not fixed value...it can be any number

let say:
dim y as string
y=Label1.text

i want to convert the received text to recognized number by B4A, the received text is random not fixed value

 

[DonManfred]

dim y as string
y=Label1.text
dim value as int = y
