How to find the cumulative sum of numbers in a list?

Question

time_interval = [4, 6, 12]

I want to sum up the numbers like [4, 4+6, 4+6+12] in order to get the list t = [4, 10, 22].

Answer 1

Assignment expressions from PEP 572 (new in Python 3.8) offer yet another way to solve this:

time_interval = [4, 6, 12]

total_time = 0
cum_time = [total_time := total_time + t for t in time_interval]
