Reading input values in ipython notebook

Question

whenever trying to input values from keyboard using ipython notebook using the input() function like python, it gives error.

EOFError                                  Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-1-725a22d6f154> in <module>()
     8 #Reads three Input values for x,y and z
     9 print "Enter Values of x, y, z :- "
---> 10 x = input()
     11 y = input()
     12 z = input()

EOFError: EOF when reading a line

the same works correctly in python. how can I do this in ipython notebook environment?

thanks in advance.
