Splitting string and storing in int

I have a string containing 2 integers separated by /, for example 12/8 or 8/6 am want to store the numbers in two integers.

Language?
  • Split the string into 2 strings using the appropriate library function for the language you are using
  • cast the two resulting string to integers and assign them to your int variables.
  • That's it

In bash:
Code:
$ first="12/8"
$ echo $first|{ IFS="/"; read a b; echo $a,$b; }
12,8

A solution in C:

Code:
#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>

main ()
{
    char str[] = "12/8";
    int  num1, num2;

    num1 = atoi (strtok (str,  "/"));
    num2 = atoi (strtok (NULL, "/"));

    printf ("The numbers are %d and %d\n", num1, num2);
}
