Java program which sums numbers from 1 to 100

Question

I have been recently started learning Java and would want to make code that sums the numbers from 1 to 100 (result would be 5050)

The code should go like 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+

Answer 1

nmb++ is equal to nmb = nmb + 1. It only adds one till it's 101, which is when it stops.

You should add a new variable, let's call it total, and sum nmb to it every iteration.

public class T35{

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int nmb;
        int total = 0;

        for(nmb= 1; nmb<= 100; nmb++){
            total = total + nmb;
        }
        System.out.println(total);

    }

}

This will do what you want.
