I don't know Python. But here a mathematical trick you can use: The sum of the first N natural numbers is given by N(N+1)/2. Make a program asking for an input (it should be an integer, you can't sum all the REAL numbers between 0 and N, as the cardinality of R is infinite) and apply the formula above. Then just output the sum.

This question is vague. Are you referring to a list? The first index? You said 'first N numbers' and 'first' is singular where 'numbers' is plural. Therefore I cannot understand the question.

N = int(input()) #you had your input , and inputs are always in string so you can directly convert the string input to int then you have to do the sum sum = 0 #intialisation for i in range(N+1): sum += i print(sum) #range always takes values from 0 to n-1 by default and here as u have to take upto n (incl n) so u have to add 1 to n #under for loop sum adds all the numbers upto n and then next outside for loop it's printing the total sum value

From 1 to N( input number) , if N is 6 you habe to do: 0+0, 0+1, 1+2, 3 +3 ā€¦ and so on. N = input() Num = 0 For i in N: Num += i Print(Num) I think you stuck on this challenge: n = int(input()) for x in range(1, n,2): if x % 3 == 0 and x % 5 == 0: print("SoloLearn") continue elif x % 3 == 0: print("Solo") continue elif x % 5 == 0: print("Learn") continue else: print(x)
