Python Coding challenge - Day 299| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Code Explanation:

def sum_list(lst):

Defines a function named sum_list that takes one parameter, lst.

lst is expected to be a list of numbers.

The purpose of this function is to calculate the sum of all elements in the list.

return sum(lst)

Uses Python's built-in sum() function to calculate the sum of all the elements in the list lst.

sum(lst) iterates through the list and adds up all its elements.

The result is then returned to the caller.

print(sum_list([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]))

Calls the sum_list function with the list [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] as an argument.

The print() function then outputs the returned value (15) to the console.

Output:

When you run this code, the output will be:
