Gavascript Parseint()

Hi at all,
please can you translate the javascript Parseint() function to a clipper
language

In particular  How can I translate to Clipper 5.3:

wDay = parseInt(wDay, 10)
if (isNaN(wDay))
wDay = 0

Not in the general case; that is, not in any bases apart from decimal.

This snippet, though, parses only decimal numbers anyway, and the
Clipper val() returns 0 as its error value in the first place, so you
can simply do

day=val(day)

Do note that this does parse "123aaa" as 123; and does parse "123.45" as
123.45. If you only want integers, you can always ask for int(val(day)).
Unfortunately, if you want to make sure there are no non-digits in the
string you'll have to make sure of this yourself; if you get the string
from user input, a @get with a picture consisting of 9s or #s will not
let the user enter non-numeric data in the first place.
