Task
User input/Graphical
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.

In this task, the goal is to input a string and the integer 75000, from graphical user interface.

AppleScript

set input to text returned of (display dialog "Enter text:" default answer "")
set input to text returned of (display dialog "Enter a number:" default answer "") as integer

Java

Library: Swing

<lang java> import javax.swing.*;

public class GetInputSwing {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        int number = Integer.parseInt(JOptionPane.showInputDialog ("Enter an Integer"));
        String string = JOptionPane.showInputDialog ("Enter a String");
    }
}</lang>

Python

Works with: Python version 2.5
Library: Tkinter

<lang python> import tkSimpleDialog

 number = tkSimpleDialog.askinteger("Integer", "Enter a Number")
 string = tkSimpleDialog.askstring("String", "Enter a String")</lang>

Ruby

Unlike most other solutions, this validates the input number to be 75,000

Library: Ruby/Tk

<lang ruby>require 'tk'

def main

 root = TkRoot.new
 l1 = TkLabel.new(root, "text" => "input a string")
 e1 = TkEntry.new(root)
 l2 = TkLabel.new(root, "text" => "input the number 75000")
 e2 = TkEntry.new(root) do
   validate "focusout"
   validatecommand lambda {e2.value.to_i == 75_000}
   invalidcommand  lambda {focus_number_entry(e2)}
 end
 ok = TkButton.new(root) do
   text "OK"
   command lambda {validate_input(e1, e2)}
 end
 Tk.grid(l1, e1)
 Tk.grid(l2, e2)
 Tk.grid("x",ok, "sticky" => "w")  
 Tk.mainloop

end

def validate_input(text_entry, number_entry)

 if number_entry.value.to_i != 75_000
   focus_number_entry(number_entry)
 else
   puts %Q{You entered: "#{text_entry.value}" and "#{number_entry.value}"}
   root.destroy
 end

end

def focus_number_entry(widget)

 widget \
   .configure("background" => "red", "foreground" => "white") \
   .selection_range(0, "end") \
   .focus

end

main</lang>

Tcl

Library: Tk

<lang tcl># create entry widget: pack [entry .e1]

  1. read its content:

set input [.e get]</lang>

Alternatively, the content of the widget can be tied to a variable: <lang tcl>pack [entry .e1 -textvar input]

  1. show the content at any time by

puts $input</lang> The -validate option can be used to test the contents/edits of the widget at any time against any parameters (including testing string is integer when the user hits <Return> or such)

VBScript

 strUserIn = InputBox("Enter Data")
 Wscript.Echo strUserIn

Vedit macro language

Displays a dialog box with two input fields and default OK button. The values entered are stored in text registers 1 and 2. The value from 2nd field is then converted into numeric value. (Accepts integers or integer expressions.)

Dialog_Input_1(1, "`User Input example`,
                   `??Enter a string `,
                   `??Enter a number `") 
#2 = Num_Eval_Reg(2)
