(defun read-number (prompt &optional default hist)
"Read a numeric value in the minibuffer, prompting with PROMPT.
DEFAULT specifies a default value to return if the user just types RET.
The value of DEFAULT is inserted into PROMPT.
HIST specifies a history list variable. See `read-from-minibuffer'
for details of the HIST argument.
For historical reasons, the value of DEFAULT is always inserted into
PROMPT, so it's recommended to use `format' instead of `format-prompt'
to generate PROMPT. HIST specifies a history list variable. See
`read-from-minibuffer' for details of the HIST argument.
This function is used by the `interactive' code letter \"n\"."
