Apple's documentation of the method intValue reads as follows:


The integer value of the receiver’s text, assuming a decimal representation and skipping whitespace at the beginning of the string. Returns INT_MAX or INT_MIN on overflow. Returns 0 if the receiver doesn’t begin with a valid decimal text representation of a number.
Thus, the string @"0" returns 0, which for my purposes is acceptable, but a string such as @"X" also returns 0, which isn't acceptable. Is there an easy way to distinguish between these two situations, or do I have to write a bunch of extra code to distinguish between them?

Use NSScanner's scanInt:
