### Task 4: Write a Program to Calculate the Total of All Input Numbers

1. **Objectives:**
    - Create a program that sums a series of numbers entered by the user.
    - Continuously request numbers from the user until a specific value (575) is entered.
    - Exclude the sentinel value (575) from the sum.
    - Display the sum of the entered numbers.

2. **Instructions:**
    a) Request a number from the console input.
    b) Infinitely repeat the request until the number 575 is entered.
    c) Sum all entered numbers (excluding the sentinel value 575).
    d) Output the sum to the console.

    **Note:** User input can be any content and it’s *bold and italicized for clarity*.

3. **Example Output:**

    ```
    Enter a number or enter 575 to stop entering values: 1
    Enter a number or enter 575 to stop entering values: 2
    Enter a number or enter 575 to stop entering values: 3.3
    Enter a number or enter 575 to stop entering values: -5.75
    Enter a number or enter 575 to stop entering values: 575

    Sum = 0.55
    ```

In this example, the user enters the numbers 1, 2, 3.3, and -5.75. Upon entering 575, the input process stops and the program calculates and displays the sum of the entered numbers (excluding 575), which is 0.55.
