input number

[Banaticus]

How do I get a number inputted?

I'd like to generate a random number from a number inputted by a user from the console.

user_seed=Input()
RandomSeed(user_seed)
first_random_number=Random(K)

But I receive an error when doing this, as Input() is assumed to be a string. What command should I use to allow a user to input a number?

use Val(user_seed) if it's an integer or ValF(user_seed) if it's a float.
