The GTK+ docs recommend the use of GtkSpinButton for getting an
integer or float from the user:

"A GtkSpinButton is an ideal way to allow the user to set the value of
some attribute. Rather than having to directly type a number into a
GtkEntry, GtkSpinButton allows the user to click on one of two arrows
to increment or decrement the displayed value. A value can still be
typed in, with the bonus that it can be checked to ensure it is in a
given range."
