You should look into fstream to write data to a file, and iostream to read input from the command line.

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
int x;

cin >> x;

ofstream textpad("notepad.txt")          //ofstream is for writing data | ifstream for reading
textpad << x << endl;                    //this is pretty much similar to cout <<
textpad.close()                          //close it

return 0;
}
