Calculate results in a while loop

Question

Hi guys,

How you doin' ? :)

I'm coming here because i have a question about the while loop. In a code that I'm testing, I made a while loop who are doing a mathematical operation while i<100 (with i=0) that give me a result each time.

I want to know if, instead of print() each result, i can make the addition and the average of all the 100 results and print this only average result?

Thanks for your answers. And sorry for my weak english, french guy here ! ^^

Answer 1

Where's your attempt?

Anywhere I've put comment too for you to understand.

i = 0 # for iterating upto 100
_sum = 0 # for storing the sum of 100 nos
while i <= 100: # loop for until i is less than or equal to 100
_sum += i # add each number
i += 1 # increment the no. (1,2,3,4,5,..)

print("the average of 100 nos", _sum/100) #print the average of 100 nos.

Answer 2

Hmmm, ok I see... I think it is the variable sum or add who are missing in my code when I compare it to your examples.

I will see, thanks for your answers guys.

Answer 3

i=0
add=0
while i<100:
add+=i
i+=1
print(add)

if you keep print statement out of while loop ,final value of add is printed

Answer 4

Just to be sure that i understand the concept of the while loop, if i want to addition the 100 results of score_Team1 and score_Team2, this is that two variables that I need to increment += i ?

from random import randint

i=0
score_Team1 = 0
score_Team2 = 0
while i < 100:
# Criteria for Home Team
nbr_HalfDistance1 = randint(90,110)
nbr_Exterior1 = randint(40,60)
nbr_FreeThrow1 = randint(10,30)

accuracy_HalfDistance1 = randint(40,70) / 100
accuracy_Exterior1 = randint(20,50) / 100
accuracy_FreeThrow1 = randint (60,100) / 100

# Criteria for Away Team
nbr_HalfDistance2 = randint(90,110)
nbr_Exterior2 = randint(40,60)
nbr_FreeThrow2 = randint(10,30)

accuracy_HalfDistance2 = randint(40,70) / 100
accuracy_Exterior2 = randint(20,50) / 100
accuracy_FreeThrow2 = randint (60,100) / 100

# Operation for calculate the number of points scored by Home Team
score_Team1 = int((((nbr_HalfDistance1 * accuracy_HalfDistance1) * 2) + ((nbr_Exterior1 * accuracy_Exterior1) * 3) + (nbr_FreeThrow1 * accuracy_FreeThrow1)))

# Operation for calculate the number of points scored by Away Team
score_Team2 = int((((nbr_HalfDistance2 * accuracy_HalfDistance2) * 2) + ((nbr_Exterior2 * accuracy_Exterior2) * 3) + (nbr_FreeThrow2 * accuracy_FreeThrow2)))

i += 1
score_Team1 += i
score_Team2 += i

print(str(score_Team1) + "-" + str(score_Team2))
