If I assign values from readln() successively, they do not work properly; the second variable is an empty line.
fun main() {
val first = readln()
val second = readln()
println(first)
println(second)
}
Does the second variable reads in some empty string or changeLine thing? If I switch the order of line 3 and line 4, everything just works fine.
fun main() {
val first = readln()
println(first)
val second = readln()
println(second)
}
Just wondering what happened in the first code?
edit : I tried this in Intellij community under Win11 and Ubuntu in VMware. Here is the picture: console debug I ran the code by left-clicking the green triangle.
edit: the first code worked fine on my old laptop, but after I updated my Intellij to the latest version, the first code broke as well.

In 2022.1.1 there is some bug in the console causing readLine (among other readers) to skip user input. [1] This bug is fixed in 2022.1.2 Preview. [2] Oddly, the problem seems to persist in 2022.2 EAP.
