How do I save value in a file and then call this value to process it?

My idea is i want to add a function and I want this function to do this steps

1- Create a file to write the date of opening the script for the first time

2- I want the script to be open every time check if it has been one days since the first time I opened it

3- If it is more than a day since first opened it, it will do something and if it will not, continue to work normally

any one can help me guys and thanks you all
