And now notice as promised, I'm using a Mac here so my cursor is not actually blinking, but the cursor is waiting there for me.

现在注意正如所承诺的，这里我用的是苹果电脑,所以我的光标不会闪烁，但是光标在那里等我输入。

If you instead use GetString, same thing: blinking cursor, the function is just going to wait for the user to type a word, a sentence or whatever, and then hit Enter.

如果你用GetSring来代替它，同样的：闪烁光标，那个函数只是等待用户来,输入一个单词，一个句子什么的，然后敲回车。

But for now assume that GetInt just makes the cursor blink or at least stay steady -- it depends on your computer and operating system and such.

但是现在假设GetInt只是使光标闪烁,或者是不变的--它依赖于你的电脑,和操作系统之类的。
