Whoops, sorry, forgot to run the executable (probably should go to bed now)
[jzakiya@jabari-pc nim]$ ./inputtest
Enter integer number: 34422
You inputed 34422 with type BiggestUInt

Made the same mistake on target program, but it works now too
I'm am running Manjaro KDE (gcc 7.1.1, clang 4.0.1) in a VirtualBox VM using
another Linux distros as VB host.
When I run this file:
inputtest.nim
import strutils, typetraits
stdout.write "Enter integer number: "
let val = stdin.readline.parseBiggestUInt
echo "You
How do you write your code? AFAIK, `readLine` is blocking.
In my machine, below code is working fine. Using Windows 10 with GCC v 7.1.0
import strutils, typetraits
stdout.write "Input integer number: "
let number = stdin.readline.parseBiggestUInt
echo "You inputed "
These don't work.
When the program displays
Enter number value:
it should stay there until I type a number and hit and then proceed.
For both cases shown the program just falls through.
[jzakiya@jabari-pc nim]$ ./myprogram
Enter number value:

Use `parseBiggestUInt` proc in
[strutils](https://nim-lang.org/docs/strutils.html#parseBiggestUInt,string)?
You can do like this:
import strutils
let theint = stdin.readline.parseBiggestUInt
or
import strutils
var theint = -1'u64
try:
I want to input numbers into a program from the command line.
$ ./myprogram
Please iput number:
The input number are unsigned 64-bit (uint64)
I tried the following:
let var = uint64(readling(stdin, input)
But I apparently have to convert a string to
