Python Program to Read a Number n And Print the Series "1+2+…..+n= "
When it is required to display the sum all the natural numbers within a given range, a method can be defined that uses a loop to iterate over the elements, and returns the sum of these numbers as output.
Below is a demonstration of the same −
Example
def sum_natural_nums(val):
my_sum = 0
for i in range(1, val + 1):
my_sum += i * (i + 1) / 2
return my_sum
val = 9
print("The value is ")
print(val)
print("The sum of natural numbers upto 9 is : ")
print(sum_natural_nums(val))Output
The value is 9 The sum of natural numbers upto 9 is : 165.0
Explanation
A method named ‘sum_natural_nums’ is defined that takes a number as parameter.
A sum value is defined as 0.
A loop is iterated over the number passed as a parameter.
The sum is incremented every time a number is encountered.
This is returned as output.
The value for number of natural numbers whose sum needs to be found is defined.
The method is called by passing this number as a parameter.
The relevant output is displayed on the console.
