Python Program to Find the Sum of Natural NumbersNatural numbers: As the name specifies, a natural number is the number that occurs commonly and obviously in the nature. It is a whole, non-negative number. Some mathematicians think that a natural number must contain 0 and some don't believe this theory. So, a list of natural number can be defined as:
N= {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, .... and so on}
N= {1, 2, 3, 4, .... and so on}
See this example:
num = int(input("Enter a number: "))
if num < 0:
print("Enter a positive number")
else:
sum = 0
# use while loop to iterate un till zero
while(num > 0):
sum += num
num -= 1
print("The sum is",sum)
This example shows the sum of the first 100 positive numbers (0-100) Output:
