ASCII number converter?

I'm making a tile map editor, and I need to write to a txt file. I have everything set, but I don't know how to convert numbers greater than or equal to 10... 1-9 you just add 816 and you have the code, but for 10, I'd be writing a word to the file; instead of a byte.
I've been using dbWriteByte(file,asciicode);
And it needs to check if it's greater than ten and instead do
dbWriteWord(file, two byte ascii value)
I don't know what to do... Help?
EDIT: if you guys are like "WTF is he talking about?", please ask questions. I'm using C++

No need to convert. If you output it into a text file, like this:
Code: Select all
ofstream write("level.txt");
int x, y;
// do stuff with x and y
write << x << " " << y;
then you can read it like this:
Code: Select all
ifstream read("level.txt");
int x, y;
read >> x >> y;
// do stuff with x and y

I know, it should be easy but the library I'm using(darkGDK) won't let me use any other standard headers like ofstream...

Yeah, I just wanted a regular CMD prompt program, but microsoft overloads it with shit... like
int main(){
return 0;
}
but no its like
int main(system::event main.load, ^,^ &even::args){
return 0;
}

Sounds like it's DarkGDK's fault, not Microsoft's.
Also, sorry, can't help you with DarkGDK. Look for DarkGDK I/O equivalents in the docs, I suppose.
