Question

Hi I want to split a string separated by space and of the form 1010 FirstName MidName LastName and use the integer 1010 in C# MVC4 Controller This string will be parsed to the controller from a hidden form element

 var str = "1010 Firstname Midname LastName";

            string[] parts = str.Split(' ');
            if (parts != null)
            {
                int idpart = parts[0];
            }

I get error can not implicitly convert type string to int
Thanks in advance

var str = "1010 Firstname Midname LastName";              
string[] parts = str.Split(' ');             
if (parts != null)             
{                 
    int idpart = Convert.ToInt32(parts[0]);
    string firstpart = parts[1];             
    string midpart = parts[2];
    string lastpart = parts[3];
}
