Read my post below

When using an ofstream like that, even in binary mode, the numbers are formatted into text. I want just the raw data, two bytes of unsigned int

Anyhoo, typecasting got the job done, and the data file is well intact and usable. I LOVE TYPECAST! Yet it can be VERY bad when abused!

Hey, my code will print a number to a file. You should've specified that you wanted raw data
