title: Does `input()` Python function has the characters like GNU read?
body: <p>GNU read has <code>-n</code> options and that can set the character that will read, from document:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p><code>-n nchars</code></p>
    
    <p>read returns after reading nchars characters rather</p>
    
    <p>than waiting for a complete line of input.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p><code>read -n 1</code> will only read one character and quit. </p>
  
  <p>But <code>input()</code> will read the input until user type <kbd>Enter</kbd> (like <code>read</code> without <code>-n</code> option does).</p>
  
  <p><br>
  And I didn't find any option of <code>input()</code> . Does <code>input()</code> support this or Python has other function can do this?</p>
