string

I'm not 100% on how to do this so i'm asking...

May seem stupid but...

How do I convert a string into an integer?

Background info: I have a textbox I have the user enter a number into...

it then:

     EditText et = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.entry1);
     String hello = et.getText().toString();

gets the string 'hello'

Now I want to convert it to a integer so I can get the number they typed in -will be used later on in code...

Is there a way to get the edittext to a integer? -That would skip the middle man... If not, string to integer will be just fine...

Thanks alot,

James
