Question

How is the output to this code 17?

sumDigits = 0
for c in str(1952):
sumDigits += int(c)
print sumDigits

Any help would be truly appreciated.

Answer 1

I don't understand the question.

Answer 2

Yeah, it is 17 in my Shell, you just have to run it. It sums up 1 + 9 + 5 + 2 and prints 17

Answer 3

#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
void main()
{
int sumDigits = 0;
int str[]={1,9,5,2};
for(i=0;i<4;i++)
sumDigits += str(i);
printf("The sum is %d",sumDigits);
getch();
}

Answer 4

Your code sums the digits of the given string, here 1952.
1 + 9 + 5 + 2 = 17
