there is some way to read input from the terminal efficiently? i'm doing a little bit of competitive programming to train my rust skills, generally i always need to read input from the terminal and them trim it them split and them parse into a int32, this result into my code being a little longer than it should be, there is some way to read input very quickly? like the println! macro but for input instead? here it's my code i don't know a lot about rust soo i'm unsure if i'm doing something wrong:

use std::io;

fn main() {
    let mut buffer = String::new();
    
    io::stdin().read_line(&mut buffer).unwrap();
    
    let mut things: Vec<&str> = buffer.split_whitespace().collect();
    let [a, b] = &things[..] else {panic!("bad input")};
    let a: i32 = a.parse().unwrap();
    let b: i32 = b.parse().unwrap();
    println!("{a}, {b}");
}
