Hey guys I finally managed to do it using while loop.

Answer 2

Frank ,

your code is running in an infinite loop, as soon as condition 'if sum == N' is evaluated to True. to get rid of this, you can add a 'break' in the next line after 'print(sum)'

Answer 3

Frank ,

sorry, in my last post i have not noticed that you are talking about "building the sum of consecutive nunbers". i only saw the infinite loop.

if your input is 5, the result should be: 1+ 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 which is 15.

to get this task done, it would be better to use a range() object, iterate over it and build the sum from all numbers coming from the range.

Answer 4

Frank ,

that is great - do your own try. if you get stuck somewhere come back.

happy coding and good success!

Answer 5

U are getting this error because u are not increment your while loop because of this your code work for infinite

Answer 6

Thanks bro

Answer 7

Added a break , now it justs prints the input number

Answer 8

Yes bro i know I can use range I had already googled it but i wanted to do some other way. I could use the program from one of those websites but i want to practice.

Answer 9

Frank try this

N = int(input())
print(int((N/2)*(N+1)))

Answer 10

Better you can use n*(n+1)/2 it will be good

Answer 11

How do i resolve this issue

Answer 12

N = int(input())
#your code goes here
x=0
for i in range(1,N+1):
x += i

print (x)
