So I'm taking a beginner Python class and one of my questions is to write code that takes n
number (eg 5) and asks the user to enter n-1 numbers in n and finds the missing number. I can't use anything more advanced than loops.
For some reason even though the value of nn
gets updated ever time the loop runs the value of number
only decreases by 1 every time the loop runs.
n = int(input('Please enter n: '))
ntotal = int(n*(n+1)/2)
print ('Please enter n: ')
print (ntotal)
i = 0
k = i
while i != n-1:
nn = int(input('Please enter a number: '))
number = ntotal - nn
print (nn)
i += 1
print (number)
You have to change ntotal
ntotal = total - number
or shorter
ntotal -= number
and display ntotal
at the end
n = int(input('Please enter n: '))
ntotal = int(n*(n+1)/2)
#print('ntotal:', ntotal)
i = 0
while i != n-1:
#for _ in range(n-1):
number = int(input('Please enter a number: '))
ntotal -= number
#print('number:', number, 'ntotal:', ntotal)
i += 1
print(ntotal)
