    @Gnimuc i don't need input string, i wanna input multiple data,like input integer and array. – Armaa May 17 '17 at 06:35

    Stuff read from input is strings. You can extract elements from it with eval and parse, e.g. `eval(parse("[2, 3]"))`. But the more important question is, why would you do it? Julia runs live in the console, so normally you don't have to build artificial user-facing interactivity. You can write the functions and assume the user knows Julia. – Michael K.

You want readline for getting input, and parse(T,s) for parsing a string s into type T. Example

julia> s = readline()
1 # readline blocks until it sees \n, I typed the "1 enter" here
"1\n"

julia> parse(Int, chomp(s))
1

The above example uses Julia 0.5, readline will remove the "\n" by default in 0.6 and later. And another user mentioned, with the REPL you rarely need to do this.
