Python program to find average of N numbers

Hello everyone, welcome back to programming in python! Here we will learn a simple logic to find average on N numbers in python. This program takes max numbers from the user and calculates the sum of all the numbers in a loop and the final obtained sum is divided by the total number of inputs taken. That results as the average of N numbers.

The formula for it is Average = ( n1+n2+n3+.....) / N , where N is the total number of inputs and n1,n2,n3.. are the values of each input.

Task :

To find an average of N numbers with max numbers and its values are given by user.

Approach :

Read an input integer for asking max numbers using input() or raw_input().
Loop N number of times for taking the value of each number using input() or raw_input(), where N is the value entered in the first step.
In the loop, sum the value of each number entered.
Finally divide the obtained sum with N, where N is the value entered in the first step.
The result obtained in the previous step is the average we wanted.
Print the result.

Program :

num = int(input('How many numbers: '))
total_sum = 0

for n in range(num):
    numbers = float(input('Enter number : '))
    total_sum += numbers

avg = total_sum/num
print('Average of ', num, ' numbers is :', avg)

num = int(input('How many numbers: '))

total_sum = 0

for n in range(num):

numbers = float(input('Enter number : '))

total_sum += numbers

avg = total_sum/num

print('Average of ', num, ' numbers is :', avg)
