if condition is not working - python program-CodePudding

I want to write progarm, The function accepts two integers n, m as arguments Find the sum of all numbers in range from 1 to m(both inclusive) that are not divisible by n. Return difference between sum of integers not divisible by n with the sum of numbers divisible by n. In my case, if is not working.

n = int(input("num "))
m = int(input("limit "))
for i in range(1, m 1):
    sum1 = 0
    sum2 = 0
    if i % n == 0:
        sum1  = i
    else:
        sum2  = i
print(f"{sum1} and {sum2}")
print(abs(sum2-sum1))

CodePudding user response：

Take sum1 = 0 and sum2 = 0 outside the for loop; currently you are resetting those values at each iteration, so that it does not keep the sum.

n, m = 2, 10
sum1 = 0
sum2 = 0
for i in range(1, m 1):
    if i % n == 0:
        sum1  = i
    else:
        sum2  = i
print(f"{sum1} and {sum2}")
print(abs(sum2-sum1))

Output:

30 and 25
5

Bring your sum1 and sum2 outside of the loop, you're resetting them every time
