How do you get two integers from the same line in python?

I wonder if it is possible to input two or more integer numbers in one line of standard input. In C/C++ it's easy:

C++:

#include 
int main[] {
    int a, b;
    std::cin >> a >> b;
    return 0;
}

C:

#include 
void main[] {
    int a, b;
    scanf["%d%d", &a, &b];
}

In Python, it won't work:

enedil@notebook:~$ cat script.py 
#!/usr/bin/python3
a = int[input[]]
b = int[input[]]
enedil@notebook:~$ python3 script.py 
3 5
Traceback [most recent call last]:
  File "script.py", line 2, in 
    a = int[input[]]
ValueError: invalid literal for int[] with base 10: '3 5'

So how to do it?

Split the entered text on whitespace:

a, b = map[int, input[].split[]]

Demo:

>>> a, b = map[int, input[].split[]]
3 5
>>> a
3
>>> b
5

If you are using Python 2, then the answer provided by Martijn does not work. Instead,use:

a, b = map[int, raw_input[].split[]]

x,y = [int[v] for v in input[].split[]]
print["x : ",x,"\ty: ",y]

In python, every time we use input[] function it directly switches to the next line. To use multiple inline inputs, we have to use split[] method along with input function by which we can get desired output.

a, b = [int[z] for z in input[].split[]]
print[a, b]

Input:

3 4

Output:

3 4

x, y = int[input[]],  int[input[]]
print["x : ",x,"\ty: ",y]

print["Input the value of x & y"]
x, y = map[int, input[].split[]]
print["The value of x & y are: ",x,y]

Input the value of x & y
 2 4
The value of x & y are:  2 4

a, b = [int[a] for a in input["Input the value of a & b: "].split[]]
print["The value of a & b are:",a,b]

Input the value of a & b:  2 4
The value of a & b are: 2 4

Concatenating iterable to a single string:

>>> x = ["python","really", "rocks"]
>>> " ".join[x]
'python really rocks'
