How to find the sum of an array of numbers

Question

Given an array [1, 2, 3, 4], how can I find the sum of its elements? (In this case, the sum would be 10.)

I thought $.each might be useful,

Answer 1

A short piece of JavaScript code would do this job:

var numbers = [1,2,3,4];
var totalAmount = 0;

for (var x = 0; x < numbers.length; x++) {

    totalAmount += numbers[x];
}

console.log(totalAmount); //10 (1+2+3+4)
