I have spent an embarrassingly large amount of time trying to solve what on its face seems like a simple problem.
I have a list of intergers, and I want to assign the sum of the intergers in the list to a variable. There are only intergers in the list.
The best I have been able to do so far is to write a function that adds list[0] and list[1], then list[1] and list [2], etc. Of course, this isn't what I want.
I'd like to be able to sum a list of any size without having to type list[0]+list[1]....
I am totally stumped.
