readInt() not work when try read binary saved integer

Question

i trying save some integers and doubles to txt file in binary format. Numbers are saved correctly i think, but problem is when i try read integer with readInt(). For example, when integer number have value = 12, program output for this integer is 208797696, and program with more integers always end with EOF exception. There´s not problem with readDouble(), it works correct.

    String map = ""; 
    Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
    try (RandomAccessFile write = new RandomAccessFile("fgh.txt", "rw")) {

    for (;;) {  
        System.out.println("1 - write int, 2 - write double, 0 - break");
        i = scan.nextInt();

Your write_int method writes using RandomAccessFile.write() , which writes a byte to the file. When you use readInt() , you read that single byte plus three bytes of other arbitrary data (because you didn't write them).

You should use RandomAccessFile.writeInt() in write_int instead.
