You can read input from user in stdin.
look at this example:
print('what is your name? ')
$name = read() # read a input and put that in $name variable
println('hello ' + $name) # say hello to $name :)
When we run this code, output is this:
what is your name? <input>parsa
hello parsa
after print what is your name? program waits for input, and when you type something and press enter, program prints hello <your-input>.
for example here I entered parsa as input and program printed hello parsa.
We can get input from user like above example.
also look at this example:
$num1; $num2
print('enter first number: ')
$num1 = int(read())
print('enter second number: ')
$num2 = int(read())
# now we want to plus them
$sum = $num1 + $num2
println(str($sum))
program output:
enter first number: <input>12
enter second number: <input>2
14
this example gets two numbers from user and shows sum of them.
You can also pass a message argument to function read. This argument will be printed before input.
For example:
$name = read('enter your name: ')
println $name
To access command line arguments, you can use $argv variable.
this variable is a public variable and is list contains command line arguments.
look at this example:
println($argv[1])
we run above code:
pashmak mycode.pashm hello
output:
hello
Type of $argv is the python list.
