Sorting stuff from a file

Steve

Hello,

I am trying to read from a text file and sort the contents which are seperate lines into the array, which proved a simple task. I however want to go through the array and store each line into a different variable and to further add to the problem some of the contents of the text files are to integers and others strings. I'm trying something with stacks right now but some ideas and input from others would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

What does the file look like? Do you know what type exists at specific positions within the file? If you know that say the third line of the file is always an integer and if you captured the file into a string array, you could just cast the value to an int when you stored it in your variable.
