can you help me with code which returns partial sum of numbers in text file? I must import text file, then make a code for partial sums without tools ..etc.
My input:
4
13
23
21
11
The output should be (without brackets or commas):
4
17
40
61
72
I was trying to make code in python, but could only do total sum and not partial one.
If i use the +=
operator for generator, it gives me an error!
Python provides an inbuilt function sum() which sums up the numbers in the list. Syntax: sum(iterable, start) iterable : iterable can be anything list , tuples or dictionaries , but most importantly it should be numbers. start : this start is added to the sum of numbers in the iterable.
To sum all numbers in a range:Use the range() class to get a range of numbers. Pass the range object to the sum() function. The sum() function will return the sum of the integers in the range.
A partial sum of an infinite series is the sum of a finite number of consecutive terms beginning with the first term. When working with infinite series, it is often helpful to examine the behavior of the partial sums.
Python sum() Function The sum() function returns a number, the sum of all items in an iterable.
Well, since everyone seems to be giving their favourite idiom for solving the problem, how about itertools.accumulate in Python 3:
>>> import itertools
>>> nums = [4, 13, 23, 21, 11]
>>> list(itertools.accumulate(nums))
[4, 17, 40, 61, 72]
