$100 Contest Question

For the contests, what is "standard input?"

When it says, " Write a program in Euphoria that reads from standard 
input a "cipher" line containing the 26 letters of the alphabet, 
rearranged somehow, e.g.
PQRSTUVZABCDEFGHWXYIJKLMNO"

does the "standard input" indicate a file?

Or is standard input the keyboard?

I know I could probably find this in the docs, but this is much more 
reliable. :)

Also, will the cipher line necessarily be sequential? For instance, 
might we encounter:

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
PRSTWUVZQMABCDEFGHXYIJKLNO <-- cipher line

This is a simple one-to-one replacement, but the cipher line, you'll 
note, is not sequential.
