in PYTHON Write a function that accepts a list as an argument and calculates the sum of each element of the list.
Types of Linked List
A sequence of data elements connected through links is called a linked list (LL). The elements of a linked list are nodes containing data and a reference to the next node in the list. In a linked list, the elements are stored in a non-contiguous manner and the linear order in maintained by means of a pointer associated with each node in the list which is used to point to the subsequent node in the list.
Linked List
When a set of items is organized sequentially, it is termed as list. Linked list is a list whose order is given by links from one item to the next. It contains a link to the structure containing the next item so we can say that it is a completely different way to represent a list. In linked list, each structure of the list is known as node and it consists of two fields (one for containing the item and other one is for containing the next item address).
in PYTHON
Write a function that accepts a list as an argument and calculates the sum of each element
of the list.
1. Start
2. Initialize an empty list called input_list.
3. Start a loop:
a. Prompt the user to enter a number (or any non-numeric value to stop).
b. Read the user input as num.
c. Convert num to a float.
d. If the conversion is successful (i.e., num is a numeric value):
- Append num to the input_list.
- Continue to the next iteration of the loop.
e. If the conversion fails (ValueError exception occurs):
- Exit the loop.
4. Calculate the sum of the elements in input_list using the sum() function and store it in total_sum.
5. Display "Sum of the elements: total_sum".
6. End
Example Execution:
- User input: 1, 2, 3, 4, a (non-numeric)
- input_list: [1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0]
- total_sum: 10.0
- Output: Sum of the elements: 10.0
