Thank you very much, Michele! One more question, if you do not mind. If I 
do something like this:

f = open("numbers.dat")

a = read(f, Int32)

a = read(f, Int32) 

a = read(f, Int32)


then a is different each time. I believe I read something about that you 
should use command close() each you opened something. Is this correct?
