Programming Project Example
Write a program to find the sum of the first n integers, where the
value of n is provided by the user. That is, write a program to find
the following sum:
1 + 2 + ... + n
Algorithm Pseudocode Examples
Example 1
Algorithm Pseudocode:
def main():
n = eval(input("Enter a number: "))
mySum = 0
for i in range(n+1):
mySum += i
print("The sum is:", mySum)
main()
