I was trying to get a series of sum from 1 to n, 2 to n, ..., and n
For example, if n=5, then the result should be
15
14
12
9
5
Please comment for the code below. I can't figure out what's wrong.
n=int(input())
sum=0
m=0
factorial=1
for i in range(1, n + 1):
factorial *= i
sum=factorial-m
print(sum)
One reasonably simple approach:
n = 5
s = sum(range(n+1))
for i in range(n):
s -= i
print(s)
15
14
12
9
5
I think you're confused with the logic of your problem, but if you want to get the sum from 1 to n you can do the following:
import numpy as np
series = np.arange(1, n)
for i in range(series.size + 1):
print(series[:i].sum())
if n = 5, the output will be: 0, 1, 3, 6, 10
