Guys how I can sum this on the end?

Question

#This is th code:
cart = [15, 42, 120, 9, 5, 380]

discount = int(input())
total = 0
i=0
for total in cart:
total= total-(total*discount/100)
print(total)

I want "total" sum all of them. Thanks

Answer 1

Do you mean to sum all the cart's item after giving discount?
If it is, then you can do like this:

You can also use the map() function to do this:

Answer 2

total = sum(cart)
discount_num = total*discount/100
gtotal = total - discount_num
print(gtotal, discount_num)

Answer 3

https://code.sololearn.com/ca185A11A10A
cart = [15, 42, 120, 9, 5, 380]

discount = int(input())
total = 0
i=0
for a in cart:
total= total+a
total=total-(total*discount)/100
print(total)

Answer 4

You wrote :
for total in cart, thats wrong.
You have to use
for i in cart:
i are the numbers in the list cart. You can it named like you want, x,y or what ever.
Then look at the formula:

total += i + (i*discount/100)
Do you understand that, if not please ask again.

cart = [15, 42, 120, 9, 5, 380]

discount = int(input())
total = 0
#i = 0
for i in cart:
total += i + (i*discount/100)
print(total)

Answer 5

One Liner :

dis = int(input('Enter Discount : ')); res = round(sum([round(i-(i*(dis/100)),5) for i in [15,42,120,9,5,380]]),5); print(res)

Here I have compressed the expression using only two variables.
The dis var is used to take the input from user.
The res uses list comprehension to retrieve a new list of discounted prices rounded and then with the sum() build-in funtion is found the sum of this list, surely rounded.

Other ideas were great, but you can do it short and easy 😄.
However you can understand this code by breaking up to different variables 😀.

Answer 6

cart = [15, 42, 120, 9, 5, 380]

dis = int(input())
total = 0
i=0
sum = ""
for t in cart:
t -= round(t*dis/100)
sum += str(t)

print(sum)

Answer 7

Here is the correction in your code :
----------------------Code-----------
for i in cart:
total = total + (i -(i*discount/100))
print (total)

-----x-------x--------
This will show the net total.
Your mistake : you used total variable to iterate through cart. But we need to use any other variable for iteration only so it doesn't affect the net total value.
How it works :
We used i to iterate through cart.
In each iteration we added the discounted price to the total.
So in the end after the loop we have the net sum ( total ) of all items in cart. And so we printed the value at the end.
