Question

A bug collector collects bugs every day for one week (7 days). Write a program that asks the user for the total number of bugs they collected for each day and stores each number in a list. Use a loop to calculate the total number of bugs and display the result.

Hi, you hadn't mention the programming language, however I write the code in Java.

Here is your program:

Code in Text:

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class Main {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // List for storing bug count for each day.
        List<Integer> bugCount = new ArrayList<>();
        // Scanner for reading input from user.
        Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);

        System.out.println("Please enter count of bug collected: ");
        //Loop through a week i.e. 7 days and ask for bug count by user.
        for (int i=0; i<7; i++){
            System.out.print("Enter for Day " + (i+1) + ": ");
            // Read the user input and assign it to count.
            int count = scanner.nextInt();
            // Add this value to list.
            bugCount.add(count);
        }


        int count = 0;
        // Now loop through list and add the value of each item in list
        // to count.
        for (int i=0; i<bugCount.size();i++){
            count += bugCount.get(i);
        }
        // Finally print the value.
        System.out.println("Total bug collected during this week: " + count);

    }
}

Output:
