# Page 83 - Formatting using interpolated strings
In Step 1, you enter some statements to output some variables using an interpolated string, as shown in the following code:
```cs
// The following statement must be all on one line.
Console.WriteLine($"{numberOfApples} apples cost {pricePerApple * numberOfApples:C}");
```
The comment says that it "must be all on one line". This is true for C# 10 and earlier (which is the default compiler if you target .NET 6), but if you use C# 11 then an expression inside an interpolation hole like `{pricePerApple * numberOfApples:C}` can now include line breaks. So we can, for example, enter the statement like this:
```cs
// The following statement must be all on one line when using C# 10 or earlier.
// If using C# 11, we can include a line break, as shown here:
Console.WriteLine($"{numberOfApples} apples cost {pricePerApple
* numberOfApples:C}");
```
# Page 85 - Getting text input from the user
I wrote that a notebook "does not support reading input from the console using `Console.ReadLine()`." Although this is true, you can use the `Microsoft.DotNet.Interactive.Kernel` class and its `GetInputAsync` method instead. This uses the .NET Interactive integration with the Visual Studio Code user interface to prompt the user for input.
