VB.NET Console Appilication Equivalent Of Python Input()
In python to assign an input to a variable with the input()
function now i know the vb equivalent would be variable = console.readline
but with python you can specify text in the input eg name = input("Enter your name")
Is there such a way to do this in vb without writing them on two seperate lines?
-Thanks

You would have to create your own method that does that.

Would writing your own function to do this satisfy your requirement? Otherwise,ReadLine
won't write to the console andWriteLine
won't read from the console.

Short answer no. docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/… it doesn't accept any arguments. As the_lotus said you could simply make your own method which accepts a string and then does a writeline and readline for you. Saves you a bit of typing
