| $text | string | prompt string |
| $options | array | the options to validate the input: - required: whether it is required or not - default: default value if no input is inserted by the user - pattern: regular expression pattern to validate user input - validator: a callable function to validate input. The function must accept two parameters: - $input: the user input to validate - $error: the error value passed by reference if validation failed. An example of how to use the prompt method with a validator function. ```php $code = $this->prompt('Enter 4-Chars-Pin', ['required' => true, 'validator' => function($input, &$error) { if (strlen($input) !== 4) { $error = 'The Pin must be exactly 4 chars!'; return false; } return true; }); ``` |

}
return isset($options['default']) ? $options['default'] : '';
