How to convert string to numeric?

Hey everyone!

I am using @str(.) to convert a number to a string.
But how can I do the opposite. To convert a numeric value string to a number?

since I am using @abs(.) to compute the absolute value of a number, I am using myTable(1,1)(table myTable) like to transfer the value, but the error message shows that a string is not accepted in the function.

Any suggestions? Thanks!
