String to Floating Point Question - Babbare - May-14-2017

What is the name of the function that converts a string to a floating point number?

I have read about 40-pages of my textbook for this answer, and I have a general idea; however, I am not 100% certain that I have the correct answer.

Any help would be soooo appreciated.

Seriously, if you google your first sentence exactly the first hit gives the answer...

But anyway, float.

I assumed that, but I was was overthinking, thank you.
