FREAD() help

Hi, ive got an array of numbers [2 4 6 8] written into a file by fprintf, Im using n=fread(fid) to get this data from a file,

im getting the numbers [50 32 52 32 54 32 56]

im aware these numbers are ascii format for the numbers in the file,

is there a way i can get the [2 4 6 8] back from these ascii numbers?

Its been suggested that i dont use fprinf but i need to be able to print text aswell as numbers.

thanks

   A = [50 32 52 32 54 32 56];
   B = str2num(char(A));
