Answer:
The output is 252
Explanation:
To get the output, I'll analyze the lines of code one after the other.
Here, user enters 78. So, start = 78
start = int(input("Enter the starting number: "))
Here, user enters 45. So, stop = 45
stop = int(input("Enter the ending number: "))
This initializes x to -10
x = -10
This initializes sum to 0
sum = 0
This iterates from 78 to 46 (i.e. 45 + 1) with a decrement of -10 in each successive term
for i in range (start, stop, x):
This adds the terms of the range
sum = sum + i
This prints the calculated sum
print(sum)
The range starts from 78 and ends at 46 (i.e. 45 + 1) with a decrement of -10.
So, the terms are: 78, 68, 58 and 48
And Sum is calculated as:
<em>Hence, 252 will be printed</em>
