WSQ04 – On to functions – Sum of numbers.

¡Hello , programmers and curious friends! This is my fourth program , created using Ubuntu bash and Atom. For this task , my classmates and I were instructed to create a program that asks for a range of integers and then prints the sum of the numbers in that range (inclusive).

For example, the sum from 6 to 10 would be 0 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10.

I decided to use a loop to calculate the sum, because my programming teacher Ken Bauer, wanted us to practice repetitive work.

The resources that helped me were:
-How to think like a computer scientist.

-cpluplus.com

-Programming hub, mobile app.

I added some extra steps, because I wanted to show more information to the users , like:

-Both numbers are the same. Give me a correct range.

– The sum is also executed if the user writes the upper and lower bound in the wrong order.

Atom code.

Ubuntu commands.

Until next time!

WSQ 04- Sum of numbers.

¡Hello , programmer and curious friends! This is my fourth program , created using Cygwin and Atom. For this task , my classmates and I were instructed to create a program that asks for a range of integers and then prints the sum of the numbers in that range (inclusive).

For example, the sum from 6 to 10 would be 0 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10.

– The sum is also executed if the user writes the upper and lower bound in the wrong order.

Here you will find my code and some captures:

Running on Cygwin.

Atom code.

#include
using namespace std;

int sum(int min,int max);

int main(){
cout << “This program prints the sum of numbers in a range(inclusive):” << endl;
int a,b;
cout << “Enter the lower bound:” << endl; cin >> a;
cout << “Enter the upper bound:” << endl; cin >> b;

if (a<b){
cout << “The sum from ” << a << ” to ” << b << ” is: ” << sum (a,b) << endl; } else if (a>b){
cout << “The sum from ” << a << ” to ” << b << ” is: ” << sum (b,a) << endl;
}
else {
cout << “Both numbers are the same. Give me a correct range.” << endl;
}
return 0;
}

int sum (int base , int limit)
{
int sum=0;
for (int i = base ; i <= limit; i++){
sum +=i;
}
return sum;
}
