Subject: Another newbie question

I am trying to write a small little program that will currently run in
a command window (I will convert it later to GUI).

How do I request input from the user such as:

>>Please enter dollar amount:

I would like the prompt to display and the user to be able to enter the
data after the prompt.  I thought "gets" would do it but I don't
understand how to get the prompt to display.

Thanks
