How to find sum of first n odd integers

When whole numbers divided by 2 leave a remainder of 1, they are called odd numbers.

Example: 1, 3, 5, 7…

Code

1. Let n be any number and initialize sum and count values to 0.

2. An empty list l is taken to append the values of odd numbers and variable i is initialized to 1.

3. The While loop is used to check whether the number is even or odd. If a number is odd, it is appended to the list l.

4. The For loop is used to iterate the list l. The elements in list l are added and stored in the variable sum.

5. sum contains the sum of the first n odd integers.
