io.read() 不起作用

Question

我刚开始编写一个非常基本的计算器程序，它工作得很好，但在完成计算后我无法让程序保持打开状态。Io.read()似乎不起作用。我的代码如下:

promptmethod = "Would you like to use addition, subtraction, multiplication, or           division?"
promptnumber1 = "Enter a number:"
promptnumber2 = "Enter another number:"
anotherprompt = "Would you like to make another calculation?"
print(promptmethod)
usermethod = io.read("*line")
print(promptnumber1)
number1 = io.read("*number")
print(promptnumber2)
number2 = io.read("*number")
if usermethod == "addition" then
answer = number1 + number2
stringanswer = "Your calculation is " .. number1 .. " + " .. number2 .. " = " .. answer
elseif usermethod == "subtraction" then
answer = number1 - number2
stringanswer = "Your calculation is " .. number1 .. " - " .. number2 .. " = " .. answer
elseif usermethod == "multiplication" then
answer = number1 * number2
stringanswer = "Your calculation is " .. number1 .. " × " .. number2 .. " = " .. answer
elseif usermethod == "division" then
answer = number1 / number2
stringanswer = "Your calculation is " .. number1 .. " ÷ " .. number2 .. " = " .. answer
else
error("Invalid operation or values.")
end
print(stringanswer)
io.read()

有人知道为什么会这样吗?谢谢你！

Answer 1

一个更简单的例子:

io.read('*number')
io.read()

问题是read('*number')不使用数字后面的换行符。因为它仍然位于输入流中，所以当您调用io.read(默认为读取一行)时，它会立即返回。

要解决这个问题，只需再次调用io.read。
