I'm writing a program that opens a file then sorts it a couple different ways then closes it. Someone in my class said something about using a getline function but I can't figure out how that works. I can't find a way to take a specific line in a text file and then put it into an array. How can I get each number into its own array?

#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
ifstream in("filename.txt");
string line;
// read each line of the file
while( getline( in, line) )
{
//blabla do something this line
}

You have to read each line one at a time until you get to the line that you want.

What kind of array? int array?
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
vector<int> arry; // array of integers
ifstream in("filename.txt");
int num;
// read each line of the file
while( line >> num )
{
arry.push_back(num); // add the number to the array
}
