Answer to Question #348767 in Python for madhu

Question

given a list of M numbers and a positive integer N, print the sum of numbers whose position in the list is divisible by N .consider that the position of numbers range from 1 to N

INPUT:

the first line contains two space-separated integers N, M

the second line contain M space-separated integers.

output:

print a single integer representing the required sum

explanation:

Sample Output1

Given N=1 , M=7

and the number list = [4,8,6,6,7,9,3]

As every position is divisible by 1,

4+8+6+6+7+9+3=43

so the output should be 43

Answer 1

N_M_lst = list(input().split())
N = int(N_M_lst[0])
M = int(N_M_lst[1])
number_lst = list(input().split())
number_lst = [int(i) for i in number_lst]
sum = 0
for i in range(M):
    if number_lst[i] % N == 0:
        sum += number_lst[i]
print(sum)
