I have numbers represented as chars (eg. '11.27') I want to type cast it to a double but im getting "pointer value used where a floating point value was expected". Any ideas?

I should demonstrate how I'm preforming the operation.

return(((double)node->key)-48);

where node->key = char[10]

Strings and character arrays cannot be typecast as values. They can only be converted. Look up string to number conversion techniques.

If only it was that easy, lol. Thanks for the tip.
