For me (Windows2000) it works well for Ruby 1.8.6, but not for nightly 
snapshot of Ruby 1.9...

puts Integer(gets)
puts Integer(gets)

ruby 1.8.6 (2007-03-13 patchlevel 0) [i386-mswin32]

>ruby19 -v

putsgets.rb:2:in `Integer': invalid value for Integer: "0\n" 
(ArgumentError)
        from putsgets.rb:2:in `<main>'
