Range() in a for Loop 2/2
Note
In many of our tasks, we'll frequently employ a
counter
variable to facilitate basic arithmetic operations.For instance, if we wish to sum 2 and 3, we'll initialize the
counter
withcounter = 0
and then add 2 and 3 to it:counter = 0 + 2 + 3 = 5
=>counter = 5
.The utilization of such variables is essential for managing straightforward mathematical operations effectively.
Take a look at the following code:
counter = 0 # Summing all numbers from 50 to 100 (included) for i in range(50, 101): counter += i # Printing the counter print(counter)
How does the code work?
Task
We've previously seen an example of summing elements from 50 to 100 using an increasing list. Now, let's tackle this task with a decreasing list:
- Establish a
for
loop, utilizingi
as an element of the range and setting step = -1. - Execute the summation by adding the elements within the range.
- Print the value of the
counter
.
Thanks for your feedback!
