Code:

def sum_of_list(list_integers):
    total=0
    #for each element in the list
    for element in list_integers:
        #we are adding each element to total one by one
        total+=element
    #returning the total value
    return total

#taking the input from user
#user should give integers with spaces it will convert into list with name list1
list1=list(map(int,input("Enter integers with spaces:").split()))
#calling the sum_of_list function by passing the list of integers as parameters
print("The sum of elements in the list:",sum_of_list(list1))
