Is there an easy way to parse numbers to strings and vice versa?

Is there a simple way to parse a number as a string and vice versa. It is cumbersome having to create a string variable and use the number->ToString action anytime that I create a number variable so that I can reference that variable as a string. Is there a way that I can parse the number as a string without creating a separate string variable.

Like how in java I could always say Integer.toString(myInt) instead of creating a string variable.

Thanks in advance
