Question

Given int variables k and total that have already been declared, use a for loop to compute the sum of the squares of the first 50 counting numbers, and store this value in total. thus your code should put 1*1 + 2*2 + 3*3 +... + 49*49 + 50*50 into total. use no variables other than k and total.

Answer 1

I don't know what language you are working with, but
set Sum = 0
For k= 1 to 50
Sum = Sum + k^2
Loop
