Reading an integer from standard input in toplevel

[romildo]

I cannot read an integer using the read_int function from the Ocaml Toplevel view. Entering the expression read_int () and then entering an integer raises the exception Failure "int_of_string":

# read_int ();;
34;;
Exception: Failure "int_of_string".
# 

So how can an integer be read from the Ocaml Toplevel view?

You can use Ctrl+Enter so that the Ocaml Toplevel view won't add ";;" at the end of your input.
