title: Reading an integer from user input
body: <p>What I am looking for is how to read an integer that was given by the user from the command line (console project). I primarily know C++ and have started down the C# path. I know that Console.ReadLine(); only takes a char/string. So in short I am looking for the integer version of this. </p>
  
  <p>Just to give you an idea of what I'm doing exactly:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Console.WriteLine("1. Add account.");
  Console.WriteLine("Enter choice: ");
  Console.ReadLine(); // Needs to take in int rather than string or char.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have been looking for quite a while for this. I have found a lot on C but not C#. I did find however a thread, on another site, that suggested to convert from char to int. I'm sure there has to be a more direct way than converting. </p>
