    Like writing and reading to files?

    Here is some sample code:
    Code:
    #include <fstream> // File stream, you need this
    #include <iostream>
    using namespace std;
    
    int main()
    {
    fstream file("somefile.txt", ios::out | ios::binary); // Opened somfile.txt for output mode and binary mode for write function
    
    int stuff;
    cout << "Enter stuff: ";
    cin >> stuff;
    
    file.write((char*)stuff,sizeof(stuff)); // write to the file
    
    file.close(); // Close the file
    
    return 0;
    }
    That was really simpe, but I hope it kind of helps. Maybe check the FAQ?
    If you ever need a hug, just ask.
