How would I got about reading a set of integers, floats, and strings as ASCII characters from an input file? THere is one entry per line and the first line in the file says how many entries there are.
Afterwards, we must determine what type of entry has been 'read' (int, float, or string) and depending on the type, we must create 3 different files and store each respective type on each file. We CANNOT use fscanf to read the entries... we must use the floating point assembly instruction to help with the conversion.
My main concern is about distinguishing the kind of type being read and how to read the entries without using fscanf! Anyone has any ideas? I've heard it's best to read everything as floats and make the determination of each type afterward.
