Redstone Imput

Ok I have tried to look everywhere for an answer to this but I couldn't find it anywhere. I am trying to get the computer to detect if a redstone signal is on for a certain amount of time which if it is then the computer will emit a signal of its own. However to do this I need the redstone.getImput ( ) program. However when I put in "front" inside the brackets all it gives me is an error message saying attempt to call nil. From reading around I think that means I've entered in an incorrect side which can't be true as front is valid. I have redstone going into the front at the time of testing. Am I missing something really obvious?
Thanks for any help you can give me

Umm… "imput" is spelled in an n, so it is input, not imput.

Maybe you made a typo. It is input not imput
Start your computer and enter 'lua'
Now try 'rs.getInput("front")'

Wow I've never felt so stupid in my life XD. Thanks guys it works now. Also thanks for not mocking me. In other forums I've used people wouldn't help they'd just insult you.

No problem! :D/>/>
