new string[75];//A new string to save the file's name to and for placing information in
format(string,sizeof(string),"%s.ini",pname);//%s will be 'pname' or the player's name and the file extension I'm using is ini
new File:file = fopen(string,io_write);//a variable that's a file uses the 'File:' prefix and will hold the return for 'fopen' where I use 'io_write' because we don't care if the file already exists, we're overwriting/creating it
//Saving Regular Variables (integers)
format(string,sizeof(string),"Cash %d",GetPlayerMoney(playerid));//Recycling string and setting it as the 'Cash' variable (uneccesary but pretty and explained further on) then '%d' ('d' for decimal, can also use 'i' for integer) which will be the player's current cash, you could replace this with another variable that's holding an integer (PlayerInfo[playerid][pAdmin] for example)
fwrite(file,string); //Writing to 'file' (fopen(string,io_write);) and writing 'string' (Cash %d)
//Saving Float Variables (numbers with a decimal point '5.75')

GetPlayerPos(playerid,x,y,z); //Setting x,y,z
format(string,sizeof(string),"\nXPosition %f",x);//this is just 1 of the coordinates, notice '%f' for Float. the '\n' means new line, so your file doesn't look like "Cash 200XPosition -1245.0043" or some crap
fwrite(file,string); //writing to the file again, no change. This will jsut continue off from where the last fwrite stopped.
//Saving String Arrays (new string[20];string = "This is a string")
format(string,sizeof(string),"PlayerName %s",pname)//Nothing like recycling strings! '%s' for string
fwrite(file,string);

LOADPLAYERLOOP: //My method of reading each line in a file (incase you add a new line or perhaps someone placed them in the wrong order, this is a label, you can use 'goto LOADPLAYERLOP' to return to this exact point in the script
