<emph>FileNumber:</emph> Number of the file that contains the data that you want to read. The file must be opened with the Open statement using the key word INPUT.</paragraph>

<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3159153" xml-lang="en-US" l10n="U" oldref="8">The <emph>Input#</emph> statement reads numeric values or strings from an open file and assigns the data to one or more variables. A numeric variable is read up to the first carriage return (Asc=13), line feed (Asc=10), space, or comma. String variables are read to up to the first carriage return (Asc=13), line feed (Asc=10), or comma.</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3146984" xml-lang="en-US" l10n="U" oldref="9">Data and data types in the opened file must appear in the same order as the variables that are passed in the "var" parameter.
