I come very late to this thread, but my conjecture is that the OP's problem is a terminological one. I think he wants to be able to convert display, character-string representations like '202' of decimal numbers into their internal, storage representations.
He does need to tell us what environment and language he is using so that we can tell him how, specifically, to solve his problem. Since he probably has a PC he could of course use the Windows calculator.
