Python Exercises: Sum of the digits in each number in a list is equal

Python Basic - 1: Exercise-147 with Solution

Sum of Digits Equality

A Python list contains three positive integers. Write a Python program to check whether the sum of the digits in each number is equal or not. Return true otherwise false.

Sample Data:

([13, 4, 22]) -> True
([-13, 4, 22]) -> False
([45, 63, 90]) -> True

Sample Solution-1:

Python Code:

# Function to check if the sum of digits in each number of the list is equal.
def test(nums):
    # Check if the sum of digits in each number of the list is equal.
    return nums[0] % 9 == nums[1] % 9 == nums[2] % 9

# Example usage of the function with different lists of numbers.
nums = [13, 4, 22]
print("Original list of numbers:", nums)
print("Check sum of the digits in each number of the said list is equal or not!")
print(test(nums))

nums = [-13, 4, 22]
print("\nOriginal list of numbers:", nums)
print("Check sum of the digits in each number of the said list is equal or not!")
print(test(nums))

nums = [45, 63, 90]
print("\nOriginal list of numbers:", nums)
print("Check sum of the digits in each number of the said list is equal or not!")
print(test(nums))

Sample Output:

Original list of numbers: [13, 4, 22]
Check sum of the digits in each number of the said list is equal or not!
True
Original list of numbers: [-13, 4, 22]
Check sum of the digits in each number of the said list is equal or not!
False
Original list of numbers: [45, 63, 90]
Check sum of the digits in each number of the said list is equal or not!
True

Explanation:

Here is a breakdown of the above Python code:

• Function definition:
• def test(nums):: Defines a function named "test()" that takes a list of three numbers (nums) as input.
• Conditional check:
• return nums[0] % 9 nums[1] % 9 nums[2] % 9: Checks if the sum of the digits in each number of the list is equal.

Sample Solution-2:

Python Code:

# Function to check if the sum of digits in each number of the list is equal.
def test(nums):
    # Check if any number in the list is negative.
    if nums[0] < 0 or nums[1] < 0 or nums[2] < 0:
        return False

    # Lambda function to calculate the sum of digits in a number.
    r = lambda x: sum(int(i) for i in str(x))

    # Unpack the list into three variables x, y, and z.
    x, y, z = nums

    # Check if the sum of digits is equal for all numbers in the list.
    return r(x) == r(y) == r(z)

# Example usage of the function with different lists of numbers.
nums = [13, 4, 22]
print("Original list of numbers:", nums)
print("Check sum of the digits in each number of the said list is equal or not!")
print(test(nums))

nums = [-13, 4, 22]
print("\nOriginal list of numbers:", nums)
print("Check sum of the digits in each number of the said list is equal or not!")
print(test(nums))

nums = [45, 63, 90]
print("\nOriginal list of numbers:", nums)
print("Check sum of the digits in each number of the said list is equal or not!")
print(test(nums))

Sample Output:

Original list of numbers: [13, 4, 22]
Check sum of the digits in each number of the said list is equal or not!
True
Original list of numbers: [-13, 4, 22]
Check sum of the digits in each number of the said list is equal or not!
False
Original list of numbers: [45, 63, 90]
Check sum of the digits in each number of the said list is equal or not!
True

Explanation:

Here is a breakdown of the above Python code:

• Function definition:
• def test(nums):: Defines a function named test that takes a list of three numbers (nums) as input.
• Conditional check:
• if nums[0] < 0 or nums[1] < 0 or nums[2] < 0:: Checks if any number in the list is negative.
• return False: Returns False if any number is negative.
• Lambda Function:
• r = lambda x: sum(int(i) for i in str(x)): Defines a lambda function (r) to calculate the sum of digits in a number.
• Unpacking and Comparison:
• x, y, z = nums: Unpacks the list into three variables (x, y, and z).
• return r(x) r(y) r(z): Checks if the sum of digits is equal for all numbers in the list.
