alternatively you can use the lambda , reduce function for summing up all the numbers in a list for e.g:-<div><br></div><div>lis = [1,2,3,4,5]</div><div><br></div><div>p = reduce(lambda x,y : x+y, lis)</div><div><br></div>
<div>p will have the value = 15.</div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Another approach,</div><div><br></div><div>>>> lis = [1,2,3,4,5]</div><div>>>> reduce(operator.add, lis)</div><div>15</div><div> </div>
<div>However use sum() for this, which is the most obvious way to do it.</div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"><div><br></div><div><br>

</div>Correct, but it is not limited to lists. Any itterable with<br>
ints/floats will do, for example a tuple is also accepted.<br>
