<p>Discards any whitespace characters (as identified by calling <a href="isspace" title="c/string/byte/isspace"><code>isspace</code></a>) until the first non-whitespace character is found, then takes as many characters as possible to form a valid <i>base-n</i> (where n=<code>base</code>) integer number representation and converts them to an integer value. The valid integer value consists of the following parts:</p>
<ul>
<li> <span class="t-mark">(optional)</span> plus or minus sign </li>
<li> <span class="t-mark">(optional)</span> prefix (<code>0</code>) indicating octal base (applies only when the base is <code>8</code> or <code>​0​</code>) </li>
<li> <span class="t-mark">(optional)</span> prefix (<code>0x</code> or <code>0X</code>) indicating hexadecimal base (applies only when the base is <code>16</code> or <code>​0​</code>) </li>
<li> a sequence of digits </li>
</ul> <p>The set of valid values for base is <code>{0,2,3,...,36}.</code> The set of valid digits for base-<code>2</code> integers is <code>{0,1},</code> for base-<code>3</code> integers is <code>{0,1,2},</code> and so on. For bases larger than <code>10</code>, valid digits include alphabetic characters, starting from <code>Aa</code> for base-<code>11</code> integer, to <code>Zz</code> for base-<code>36</code> integer. The case of the characters is ignored.</p>
<p>Additional numeric formats may be accepted by the currently installed C <a href="../../locale/setlocale" title="c/locale/setlocale">locale</a>.</p>
<p>If the value of <code>base</code> is <code>​0​</code>, the numeric base is auto-detected: if the prefix is <code>0</code>, the base is octal, if the prefix is <code>0x</code> or <code>0X</code>, the base is hexadecimal, otherwise the base is decimal.</p>
<p>If the minus sign was part of the input sequence, the numeric value calculated from the sequence of digits is negated as if by <a href="../../language/operator_arithmetic#Unary_arithmetic" title="c/language/operator arithmetic">unary minus</a> in the result type.</p>
<p>The functions sets the pointer pointed to by <code>endptr</code> to point to the character past the last character interpreted. If <code>endptr</code> is a null pointer, it is ignored.</p>
<p>If the <code>nptr</code> is empty or does not have the expected form, no conversion is performed, and (if <code>endptr</code> is not a null pointer) the value of <code>nptr</code> is stored in the object pointed to by <code>endptr</code>.</p>
