if the string starts with pool2 then to add in intiger int=p2 the 1252 number

int p1 = 0 p2 = 0 p3 = 0 p4 = 0; string RxString = textBox1.Text; if (RxString.StartsWith(pool1)) { p1 += string2int(RxString.ToCharArray(6(RxString .Length - 6))); } if (RxString.StartsWith(pool2)) { p2 += string2int(RxString.ToCharArray(6 (RxString.Length - 6))); } if (RxString.StartsWith(pool3)) { p3 += string2int(RxString.ToCharArray(6 (RxString.Length - 6))); } if (RxString.StartsWith(pool4)) { p4 += string2int(RxString.ToCharArray(6 (RxString.Length - 6))); } } private int string2int(char[] p) { return (((int)p[0] - 48) * 1000) + (((int)p[1] - 48) * 100) + (((int)p[2] - 48) * 10) + ((int)p[3] - 48); }
