1D Arrays in C

    Mostly agreed, it's a poorly written challenge. They want:

    #include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
    int n,sum=0;
    scanf("%d",&n);
    int *val = malloc(n*sizeof(int));
    for(int i=0;i<n;i++)
    {
        scanf("%d",&val[i]);
        sum+=val[i];
    }
    printf("%i",sum);
    free(val);
}

    But there's no reason to store the values. There would be, if you were required to sum all values, then reprint each value. Otherwise you can just..

    #include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
    int n,val,sum=0;
    scanf("%d",&n);
    while(n--)
    {
        scanf("%d",&val);
        sum+=val;
    }
    printf("%i",sum);
}
