Finding the mean

Question

if i have this code:

Start = int('input( enter number to start at')
X = int(input('enter number to end with')
Sum=0

for i in range(start, x+1):
Sum += 1
print('from start to end total is {}'.format(Sum / (i)))

Answer 1

what timezone are you from that your anwsering so fast/do you even sleep 😅😅

Answer 2

ok- it take me some time to fix it all. Sorry to say there is hardly a line of code without an issue 🤒
But don’t worry, you will learn about this. It‘s too late for me now. so please try to compare your code carefully with the revised code. I did not only fix syntax errors and some math problems, i also corrected some variable names that are named exactly like a python object which should not be.
please keap in mind that python is case sensitive so upper or lowercase matters.

#Finding the mean
#if i have this code:

start = int(input('enter number to start at'))
x = int(input('enter number to end with'))
sum1=0

for i in range(start, x+1):
sum1 += i
print('Mean is {}'.format(sum1 / len(range(start, x+1))))

If you need to have more explanations give me a feedback. So i will come back tomorrow.

A last comment: As i saw that you have not done the python course here at SoloLearn. i would encourage you to do so. It‘s worth !!

good luck!

Answer 4

Id be ok but really thanx

Answer 5

the last line in the code just puts the result of "sum1 / len(range(start, x+1))" where the "{}" is an other way to achieve a similar result woulde be like this:
print("from start to end total is" + str(sum1 / len(range(start, x+1))))

Answer 6

I am trying to understand what is happening at the last line of code can some one break it down for me please i would be ever so grateful

Answer 7

The code should be taking in a number lets say the number is 0 and taking a final number lets say that number is 3
What should happen is 0+1+2+3 / by the amount of numbers in this range which is 4?

am i correct here? can a professional confirm this please? i am new and just want to know if my understanding is sound

Answer 10

K i will try again! Thank you again for your expertise! I signed up for 3 courses external this one and i just left all of them at the start. i had loads of questions and they weren't helping me understand. So i decided before i waste money again i will try to get my hands dirty and understand what is really happening by my own errors rather than watching and not getting the understanding that is required to become a pro! So this far i habe understood loads this way. i tying to gather a little more confidence
