Is there a way to read standard input with JavaScript?

Question

I saw this for lots of other languages but not JavaScript.

I\'m trying to do problems like: this (codechef.com) and of course the programs need to be able to read

Answer 1

Use just readline()

var a = readline();

the value which you give input will be stored in variable a.

readline() : Reads a single line of input from stdin, returning it to the caller. You can use this to create interactive shell programs in JavaScript.
