First thing to note is that proper formatting really helps to show the structure of a program, but improper formatting really obscures it.

Is this your code?

They are using variables to store the values of input. It really isn't possible not to store the input in a variable, otherwise you can't pass it to functions and the like.

I think you need to clarify what you need help on.
