It is possible that you may be asked to write a save routine, possibly as an additional menu option. If you search this site there are already several threads about this exam and lots of suggestions as to what may or may not come up on the exam.

Thinking about programming problems

This may be what you are asked for ??

Can someone confirm what is meant to happen to the function of saving csv?- you need to know how to do this


 If you load topscores there are four players. Now if two new people play and get two new highscores its meant to replace the lowest scores on the topscores file right?

 But is it meant to replace it temporarily just in while your playing the game?

 for example say if ur playing and get 2 topscores during the game it will replace the lowest topscores, but once you quit the game those topscores are gone.

Now i want to know do you need to replace the new topscores on the actual textfile?? - you must be able to do this ??



 like i said before if i get a topscore and quit the game, is it possible to store the new topscores on the actual hiscores.txt file??
so when you start a new game next time and load the topscores it will have you in the file?

Does that need to happen?
If so how??
