Useful for turning strings into numbers.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
{{ int "123" }} → 123
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{{% note "Usage Note" %}}
 | 
						|
If the input string is supposed to represent a decimal number, and if it has
 | 
						|
leading 0's, then those 0's will have to be removed before passing the string
 | 
						|
to the `int` function, else that string will be tried to be parsed as an octal
 | 
						|
number representation.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The [`strings.TrimLeft` function](/functions/strings.trimleft/) can be used for
 | 
						|
this purpose.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
{{ int ("0987" | strings.TrimLeft "0") }}
 | 
						|
{{ int ("00987" | strings.TrimLeft "0") }}
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
**Explanation**
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `int` function eventually calls the `ParseInt` function from the Go library
 | 
						|
`strconv`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
From its [documentation](https://golang.org/pkg/strconv/#ParseInt):
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
> the base is implied by the string's prefix: base 16 for "0x", base 8 for "0",
 | 
						|
> and base 10 otherwise.
