Of course there is a way. TryParse probably fits your needs best since it returns a bool. For explanation, examples and alternatives refer to this: https://www.tutorialsteacher.com/articles/convert-string-to-int

s will never be 42, it can only be "42", still a string. Use cast/ convert if you want something else. There is no such thing as best type in general. It depends on the application, so you have to define and implement it yourself
