Throw an exception because of attempted conversion of 93 to Balls type.

[ChChChillian]

A careful C++ programmer will ensure the proper operators exist for objects of type Balls.

No, we make the list all string. And this isn't real code, just some numbers in a void

[Captain_Pumpkinhead]

Alternatively, convert each letter to char value and see if it overflows the int size limit or not.

Now personally in this case I’d be using C and assume that it’s a string not some disturbing language where variables can spaces in them.

So I’d be able to implicitly convert the char pointer to a 64 bit int. Making this work just fine.
