Visual Studio Code is not taking input from keyboard when I use C++ or Java

Question

While taking input from the user using C++/Java, program is running successful and Visual Studio Code does asks user to input, but when I try to enter anything like a number or a character, it takes no input.

Answer 1

Your program is running in Output tab, therefore it is not possible to take input. Just enable Run in terminal in Visual Studio Code Settings.

Settings (ctrl+,) -> Search settings, look for code runner: run in terminal (check)

Note: It is supposed that you have Code Runner extension installed.
