Returns the sum of the powers of all the numbers from start to end (both inclusive).

def sum_of_powers(end, power = 2, start = 1):
 return sum([(i) ** power for i in range(start, end + 1)])

sum_of_powers(10) # 385
sum_of_powers(10, 3) # 3025
sum_of_powers(10, 3, 5) # 2925

Returns the sum of the powers of all the numbers from <code class="notranslate">start</code> to <code class="notranslate">end</code> (both inclusive).
<ul>
<li>Use <code class="notranslate">range()</code> in combination with a list comprehension to create a list of elements in the desired range raised to the given <code class="notranslate">power</code>.</li>
<li>Use <code class="notranslate">sum()</code> to add the values together.</li>
<li>Omit the second argument, <code class="notranslate">power</code>, to use a default power of <code class="notranslate">2</code>.</li>
<li>Omit the third argument, <code class="notranslate">start</code>, to use a default starting value of <code class="notranslate">1</code>.</li>
