[Tutor] Adding numbers within a string

[isaac tetteh]

def foo(x):
a,b = (0,"")
for i in x:
if i != " ":
b+=i
else:
print ("this is b",b)
a = a + int(b)
print ("this is a",a)
b = ""
print ("final a ",a)


this should help you solve it. figure a way to add the last number. if any troubles ask again.
Thanks [😊]

def sum_numbers(x):
    for x in [1]:
        print(23)

Your instructor will probably be displeased with that answer, but it meets
the requirements.

It would be nice if our teachers could models writing good requirements.

What do you think a good requirement statement would be?
