**Features:**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Convert any integral type to a string at compile-time
|
|
|
|
|
* Supports converting to any base between 2 and 36 inclusive
|
|
|
|
|
* No external dependencies, only includes `type_traits` for template parameter checking
|

**How to use:**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This single header file provides a `to_string` utility, which may be used as below:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```cpp
|
|
|
|
|
const char *number = to_string<2147483648999954564, 16>; // produces "1DCD65003B9A1884"
|
|
|
|
|
puts(number);
|
|
|
|
|
puts(to_string<-42>); // produces "-42"
|
|
|
|
|
puts(to_string<30, 2>); // produces "11110"
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With `to_string`, all that will be found in program disassembly are the resulting string literals, as if you wrote the strings yourself.

**Known issues:**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* With C++17 GCC, `to_string` must be used to initialize variables; otherwise, the integer-string conversion is done at run-time.
