I'm having trouble filling out a question on an online python tutorial. It seems really simple but for the life of me I can't figure it out. This is the problem "write a for loop that adds all the numbers 1 to 10 and returns the sum." And this is the code I have been trying:
def run():
sum = 0
for i in range(11):
sum += i
return sum
What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help.
You're returning within the loop, after one iteration. You need to dedent the return statement so that it falls outside the loop:
def run():
sum_ = 0
for i in range(11):
sum_ += i
return sum_
sum as a variable name, that way you can;t use the sum() `built-in.if anyone want to know how to add 0 + 1 count until 100. There is it!
x = 0
while x<100:
x += 1
print(x)
You are returning the sum from within the for loop. Indent it outside. Keep it at the same level of indentation as for.
def addNumbers(num)
sum=0
for i in range(0,num+1)
sum=sum+i
return sum
def run(n): total = 0 for item in range(n): total = total + item return total
print(run(11))
