How to take input in main function in mips?

Depends on what OS you are using and what runtime libraries are available. Try providing more information. — Paul R, Dec 28 '10 at 16:33

It depends. If you are going to ask for an integer it should be

li $v0, 5
syscall

If you are going to ask for a float should be

li $v0, 6
syscall

If you are going to ask for a double it should be

li $v0, 7
syscall

And if you are going to ask for an string it should be

li $v0, 8
syscall

But, if you are going to ask for an string and the input is going to take maximum number of characters, then you should use $a1instead of $a0 when printing it.
