python while loop printing each line

Question

user_input = input("Please enter a number: ") user_input = 
int(user_input) total = 0
i = 1
while i<=user_input:
    total += i
    i += 1
    print(total)

    

Output is:

Please enter a number: 5
1
3
6
10
15

But I want it to print only the last value. Kindly help out.

Answer 1

You can try to call the print function from outside the loop and by that you will get one print

user_input = int(input("Please enter a number: "))
total = 0
i = 1
while i<=user_input:
    total += i
    i += 1
print(total)

Answer 2

If you want to print only the last value, you need to get the print function out of the loop

i = 1
total = 0

while i<=user_input:
   total += i
   i += 1
   
print(total)
