I need to read in a .dat file and manipulate the words and letters in the file to a different format.
I am aware on how to read in a file however each item in the .dat file is on its own line like so:
run
jump
skip
365
fast-pace
I need to read in the items that are numbers as an long float etc.. and the words can be strings but I then need to re-organize them. Do I read them in, make them variables, and produce them in a new string or is there another way to go about doing this?
I specifically do not know how to make "run" or "365" into a variable from the file.
