In saving files using formatter, can i also save an integer or any data type and use it again later? For example a high score...

Question

Also if i can read the file and a highscore integer highScore... and save it on a file then read it for later use.

Answer 1

Absolutely! There are many built-in functions that covers most languages that converts a string to an integer or floating point number. And in most cases, when reading a file normally (not in binary mode), a string will be used to read each line. It will be up to you to

a) format the file
and/or
b) parse the each line to make conversions work correctly

What language specifically? It would help for an example.
