Try this:

Console.Write("Enter your input here: ");
string userinput = Console.ReadLine();

Just change Console.WriteLine to Console.Write.

Use Console.Write() instead of Console.WriteLine().

I think that's what you mean anyway, the question isn't very clear.

I think you're asking if it's possible to read both height and weight at the same time:

// C equivalent
printf ("Enter height (cm) and weight (kg): ");
scanf ("%d %d\n", &h, &w);

Yes, there are several alternatives.

Arguably the easiest is use Console.ReadLine() (like you're doing) and parse the string.

You can also try multiple "Console.Read()" (one for each argument).
