How can I get the sum of the outputs of an equation from a for loop?

Question

I know how I can get the sum of the numbers themselves in a range, but if I had an equation written in a for-loop such as the following:

for t in range(0,6):
    velocity = (.2*(t**2)) + 3

How could I get Python to add all the outputs of the equation together?

Answer 1

Just add the result of the formula to a variable defined outside the for loop

sum_velocity = 0 

for t in range(0,6):
    sum_velocity += (.2*(t**2)) + 3

Answer 2

Just add the value of velocity obtained in every iteration as below:

velocity = 0
for t in range(0,6):
    velocity += (.2*(t**2)) + 3
print (velocity)

Output:

29.0
