Converting String to int??????? (Java)

[imported_nautique]

I am reading in a value from the user as a string. But I need to use that value as an int value. Can you parse a string to an int? Or can someone tell me another way I should be doing this?

Thanks

and be sure to have some error handling in case the user types in "one" instead of "1"
