Strings, need help

[Sebastiaan]

I'm trying to write data about the players and their companys to a file to allow statitics to be made out of them.

I managed to figure out how to retrieve the content of a string, ie. president_name and name, but i cannot do the same for an int like player_money.

How can i convert an int (int32) to a string or, if no such function exists, how can i output such a number to a file?

thanks a lot.

ps: please do say google or read the code, because i tried both..

if you're using normal printing routines from C then the function you need is (w)sprintf(char * outputbuffer, char * patternstring, arguments...);

you'd use it like: sprintf(buf,"%d",player_money);
the pattern string defines how the integer should be printed. for an explanation on how to use it, google
