Binary vs text files
Binary vs text files comparisson
- read this awesome article https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/difference-between-cpp-text-file-and-binary-file/
- Basically normal text files take more space than binary files, becouse you need to convert integer representation of number into chars. In binary file format, the raw binary data is dumped into file. --> that results in much smaller file size
