see php.net/file or php.net/fread
$file = "somefile.dat";
if ([EMAIL PROTECTED]($file)) return 0;
$filecontent = file($file);
$numbers = array();
if (is_array($filecontent) && count($filecontent)) {
foreach($filecontent as $line) {
// delete more than one space
$line = ereg_replace("[ ]*"," ", $line);
// explode whole line into array
$numbers_temp = explode(" ", $line);
// add temp arr to $numbers array
$numbers = array_merge($numbers, $numbers_temp);
}
}
and now you have all the data in $numbers array...
you DON'T need to convert strings to numbers.
