How to read an integer from stdin

[cole-miller]

Here's a previous thread on the same topic, with discussion of the tradeoffs involved:

Why is it so difficult to get user input in Rust?

We can simply read user input in C++ or Python Ex (for C++): std::cin >> name; Ex (for Python): name = input("Your name: ") But, in Rust we have to use that "things" use std::io; use std::io::*; fn main() { let mut input = String::new(); io::stdin::().read_line(&mut input).expect(“error: unable to read user input”); println!("{}",input); } all that things for read a simple input. Why isn't it made simpler?
