Finding the sum of two numbers is simple, but it can get tedious if the numbers are big. Here is how you can create a Java program to find the sum of two numbers.
Steps
-
1
Plan your program. Finding the sum of two numbers isn’t difficult, but it is always a good practice to plan your program before beginning to code. Understand that you’d need two inputs/ parameters from the user for this program: the two numbers.
-
2
Write the code. Finding the sum of two numbers means the simple addition of both the numbers.[1]
- Create a separate variable to store the value of the sum. This can be of the type int.
- The formula to find the sum is:
Sum = First Number + Second Number
- To get these parameters (inputs) from the user, try using the Scanner function in Java.

3
Display the output. Once the program has calculated the sum, display it to the user. Use the System.out.print or System.out.println (to print on a new line) function, in Java, for this.[2]

Can the volume of a cuboid, cylinder, and cone be calculated by a switch statement taking suitable variables and data types?
Living Concrete
Top Answerer
Yes. You may want to have the user specify what kind of shape before taking in any other input (such as dimensions).

Question
How do I find the sum of numbers in Java?
Enter this code: import java.io.*;
class addnumbers
{
public static void main(String args[])
int a=10;b=20;c;
c=a+b;
System.out.println(“enter adding values”);

Question
How can I find the sum of 46 and 56?
Assume there are three integers (a, b, c): int a = 46; int b = 56; int c = a + b; System.out.println(c);
Don’t forget the semicolons.

Sample Code
mScanner.nextInt(); sum = firstNumber + secondNumber; System.out.println("The sum of the two numbers you entered = " + sum); } }
-
Try expanding your program to perform multiple mathematical calculations.
-
Try making a GUI, which will make the program much more interactive and easier to use.

In this section, we will create Java programs to find the sum or addition of two numbers using the method and command-line arguments, the sum of three numbers, and the sum of n numbers.
Sum of Two Numbers in Java
In Java, finding the sum of two or more numbers is very easy. First, declare and initialize two variables to be added. Another variable to store the sum of numbers. Apply mathematical operator (+) between the declared variable and store the result. The following program calculates and prints the sum of two numbers.
SumOfNumbers1.java
Output:
The sum of numbers is: 340
Sum of Two Numbers in Java Using Method
There are two ways to find the sum of two numbers in Java.
- By using User-defined Method
- By using sum() Method
By Using User-defined Method
The Java Scanner class allows us to read input from the user. We take two numbers as input and pass them to the user-defined method sum(). The following program calculates the sum of two numbers using the method and prints the result.
SumOfNumbers2.java
Output:
Enter the first number: 34 Enter the second number: 12 The sum of two numbers x and y is: 46
By Using Integer.sum() Method
The Integer class provides the sum() method. It is a static method that adds two integers together as per the + operator. It can be overloaded and accepts the arguments in int, double, float, and long.
Syntax:
It returns the sum of the numbers that are passed as an argument. It throws ArithmaticException when the result overflows an integer value.
Note: If both arguments are negative, the result will be negative.
SumOfNumbers3.java
Output:
The sum of x and y is: 88 The sum of x and y is: -38
Similarly, we can calculate the sum of double, float, and long type numbers.
Sum of Two Numbers Using Command Line Arguments in Java
The command-line arguments are passed to the program at run-time. Passing command-line arguments in a Java program is quite easy. They are stored as strings in the String array passed to the args[] parameter of the main() method in Java.
SumOfNumbers4.java
Output:
The sum of x and y is: 101
First, compile the above program by using the command javac SumOfNumbers4.java. After that, run the program by using the command java SumOfNumbers4 89 12. Where 89 and 12 are command-line arguments.
Sum of Three Numbers in Java
The program for the sum of three numbers is the same as the sum of two numbers except there are three variables.
SumOfNumbers5.java
Output:
Enter the first number: 12 Enter the second number: 34 Enter the third number: 99 The sum of three numbers x, y, and z is: 145
Sum of N Numbers in Java
- Read or initialize an integer N (number of integers to add).
- Run a loop up to N times that ask to provide integers (to be added) again and again.
- Calculate the cumulative sum for each input and store it into a variable (sum).
- After terminating the loop, print the result.
Let’s implement the above steps in a Java program.
SumOfNumbers6.java
Output:
Enter Number of Numbers to be Calculated: 4 Enter the number: 12 Enter the number: 13 Enter the number: 5 Enter the number: 4 The sum of the numbers is: 34
Чтобы реализовать ввод чисел с клавиаутуры нужно воспользоваться классом Scanner из библиотеки пакетов Java. Данный класс нужно импортировать до создания основного класса Main.
Далее в методе мей мы создаем
объект scn класса Scanner. Стандартный поток ввода т.е клавиатура в Java представлен объектом — System.in.
Метод .nextInt() считывает целые числа типа int и присваиеват их в переменную a.
import java.util.Scanner; // импорт класса Scanner
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner scn = new Scanner(System.in); // объект класса Scanner
System.out.println(“Введите число А = “);
int a = scn.nextInt(); // считываем первое введенное число
System.out.println(“Введите число В = “);
int b = scn.nextInt();
System.out.println(“Сумма = ” + (a+b));
}
}
Решим еще одну подобную задачу. Условие задачи даны стороны треугольника. Найдите периметр треугольника. Решение подобно поэтому привожу только код программы.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Main1{
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println(“Введите сторону А = “);
Scanner scn = new Scanner(System.in);
int a = scn.nextInt();
System.out.println(“Введите сторону B = “);
int b = scn.nextInt();
System.out.println(“Введите сторону C = “);
int c = scn.nextInt();
System.out.println(“Периметр треугольника равен = ” + (a+b+c));
}
Пользователь вводит два числа и нужно найти сумму чисел между ними. Пример: 10 и 12, сумма которой будет 33. Но в моём случае программа почему-то всегда даёт сумму на три больше.
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class Solution {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
int n = scan.nextInt();
int m = scan.nextInt();
int i = 0;
if(m>n){
while(n-1<m){
n++;
i +=n;
}
System.out.println(i);
}
}
}

считайте по формуле арифметической прогрессии
Сумма n первых членов арифметической прогрессии вычисляется как:
(a_1 + a_n)*n/2
в вашем случае это
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class Solution {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
int n = scan.nextInt();
int m = scan.nextInt();
System.out.println((n + m)*(m - n + 1)/2);
}
}
ну или по формуле
(n + m)*(m - n + 1)/2 это (10 + 12)*(12 - 10 + 1)/2 = 33

The java.lang.Integer.sum() is a built-in method in java that returns the sum of its arguments. The method adds two integers together as per the + operator.
Syntax :
public static int sum(int a, int b)
Parameter: The method accepts two parameters that are to be added with each other: a : the first integer value. b : the second integer value.
Return Value: The method returns the sum of its arguments.
Exception: The method throws an ArithmeticException when the result overflows an int.
Examples:
Input: a = 170, b = 455 Output: 625 Input: a = 45, b = 45 Output: 90
Below programs illustrate the Java.lang.Integer.sum() method:
Program 1: For a positive number.
java
import
java.lang.*;
public
class
Geeks {
public
static
void
main(String[] args)
{
int
a =
62
;
int
b =
18
;
System.out.println(
"The sum is ="
+ Integer.sum(a, b));
}
}
Program 2: Below program illustrates the exception.
java
import
java.lang.*;
public
class
Geeks {
public
static
void
main(String[] args)
{
int
a =
92374612162
;
int
b =
181
;
System.out.println(
"The sum is ="
+ Integer.sum(a, b));
}
}
Output:
prog.java:8: error: integer number too large: 92374612162 int a = 92374612162; ^ 1 error
Program 3 : Find the sum of integers using a loop
Java
import
java.io.*;
public
class
Arrays {
public
static
void
main(String[] args)
{
int
[] arr = {
2
,
4
,
6
,
8
,
10
};
int
sum =
0
;
for
(
int
i =
0
; i < arr.length; i++) {
sum += arr[i];
}
System.out.println(
"Sum of array elements is: "
+ sum);
}
}
Output
Sum of array elements is: 30
