Program/Source Code:

The source code to read an integer number from the user is given below. The given program is compiled and executed successfully.

// Rust program to read a float number 
// from the user

use std::io;

fn main() {
    let mut num:f32=0.0;
    let mut input = String::new();
    
    println!("Enter number: ");
    io::stdin().read_line(&mut input).expect("Not a valid string");
    num = input.trim().parse().expect("Not a valid number");
    
    println!("Number is: {}",num);
}

Output:

Enter number: 
123.45
Number is: 123.45
