It depends on the version of Prolog you are using.
The "name" functor suggested by NIDE Naoyuki works in one version of Prolog
that I have, but not in another.
PD Prolog uses a special funtor called "atoi" which stands for "Ascii TO
Integer".
It can convert from an Ascii number string to an integer, or vice versa.
Other versions of Prolog should all have something similar, but probably with a
different name.
It works like this :
atoi( Ascii, Integer )
--------------------
?- X is 3 + "2".
No
?- atoi( "2", Integer ), X is 3 + Integer.
X = 5
?-
