How can i store strings to a file?

u see if i have:
string name="McCall";

and i store it to file using ofstream, its just numbers in the file so obviously its kinda difficult to load from the file.

Soo does the string type have any operator perhaps to get chars, not the memory address or what ever it gaved to me?

Here is code that shows both how to read and write strings to a file:

#include <stdio.h>int main(){    FILE* fptr;    char mystr[] = "Hello World";    char anotherstr[101];    /* Write "Hello World" to file "hi.txt" */    fptr = fopen("hi.txt", "wt"); /* w means write, t means text file */    fprintf(fptr, "%s", mystr); /* Write string mystr */    fclose(fptr);    /* Now read that string back in */    fptr = fopen("hi.txt", "rt"); /* r means read */    fscanf(fptr, "%100s", anotherstr); /* Read string in */    fclose(fptr);    /* To prove this worked, we'll print anotherstr to the screen */    printf("The string is: %s\n", anotherstr);    return 0;}
