## Calculate the sum of first n integers
 
# Get input from user
n = int(input("Enter the value of n: "))
 
# Calculating the sum upto the provided number
summation = ( n * (n + 1) ) / 2
 
# Outputting the value on to the screen
print("Sum of first", str(n), "integers is:", int(summation))
 
## INPUT: 5 OUTPUT: 15
