file_text_read_real(fileid);
| Argument | Description |

| fileid | The id of the file to read from. |
Returns: Real
With this function you can read a real number value from a text
file and the function returns that value to be used or stored in a
variable.
var i, file;
file = file_text_open_read(working_directory + "\hiscore.txt");
for (i = 0; i < 10; i += 1)
{
scr[i] = file_text_read_real(file);
file_text_readln(file);
scr_name[i] = file_text_read_string(file);
file_text_readln(file);
}
file_text_close(file);
The above code opens a file for reading and then loops through the lines of the file reading alternately a real number value and a string into two different arrays for future use. The file is then closed when the loop has finished.
