Input: N, K

Output: sumSeries

The program is given below:

/* This program computes the sum of a series */

#include <stdio.h>

void main()

{

int sumSeries, i;

int N; /* Number of terms */

int K; /* The integer multiple*/

printf(“\n Enter Number of terms and Integer Multiple”);

scanf (“%d %d”, &N,&K);

sumSeries = 0; /*Accumulator initialized */

For (i=1; i<=N; i++)

{

sumSeries = sumSeries + i*K;

}

printf (“\n The sum of first %d terms = %d”, N, sumSeries);

}

In fact, it can be concluded that irrespective of the programming paradigms, a general algorithm is

designed based on following constructs:
