find the sum of all elements in an array in Ruby
Code snippet on how to find the sum of all elements in an array in Ruby
array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
sum = 0
array.each do |number|
sum += number
end
puts sum # output 15
This code takes an array of numbers, then sets up a variable called sum
and sets it to 0. The code then loops through the array using the each
method and for each number, it adds it to the value of sum
. After looping through all the elements, it prints out the value of sum
, which is the total of all elements in the array. In this example, the output would be 15.
