Program Plan Intro

Calculate the sum of first n natural numbers and sum of cubes of first n natural numbers

Program plan:

  • The function named “sumN()” is defined and inside the “sumN()”,
    • Declare and initialize the variable named “fact” and store the calculated area value in it.
    • Initialize a for loop which ranges from 1 to -1
      • Add the value of factor to fact.
      • Return the value stored in the “fact” variable.
  • The function named “sumNCubes()” is defined and inside the “sumNCubes()”,
    • Declare and initialize the variable named “cube” and store the calculated area value in it.
    • Initialize a for loop which ranges from 1 to -1
      • Multiply the value of factor with 3 and then add that value to “cube”.
      • Return the value stored in the “cube” variable.
  • In the “main()” function,
    • Generate a prompt to take the user input.
    • Call the method named “sumN()” with user input as the argument.
    • Call the method named “sumNCubes()” with user input as the argument.
  • Print the output statement and output value.
  • Call the function “main()”.

Write definitions for the following two functions:sumN (n) returns the sum of the first n natural numbers.sumNCubes (n) returns the sum of the cubes of the first n natural numbers.Then use these functions in a program that prompts a user for an n andprints out the sum of the first n natural numbers and the sum of the cubesof the first n natural numbers.
Write a function that checks whether an integer is an even digit or an odd digit integer using the following header: int getType(int n)
Complete the function that calculates the sum of the first n+1 terms of the geometric series a, ar, ar² ar³, art Note that the series begins with a and the last term is ar", in total there are n+1 terms. # complete the function given the variables a,r,n and return the value as series_sum. def sum geometric_series (a,r,n): # YOUR CODE HERE return series_sum ... arr print (sum_geometric_series (4.0, 5, 10))
