How to use a for loop to calculate the sum of a row vector?

348 views (last 30 days)
I have the values x-[1, 23, 43, 72, 87, 56, 98, 33] How do you calculate the sum (which should equal 413) using a for loop?

x = [1, 23, 43, 72, 87, 56, 98, 33] ;
y = 0;
for n = 1:length(x)
y = y + x(n);
end

Write a program (using loops) that calculates and displays the sum of all the elements of x=[2 -5 6 7; -4 8 -5 6];(its a question)

X =['enter an array>']; m = length(x); Sum = 0; For i = 1:m Sum = sum + X(i); end Disp(sum)
IF you want single sum. It you wish iterations remove semicolon from end of X(i).
