Project Euler - #1 Python wrong solution

Question

I am relatively new to coding in general and started Project Euler to bring my coding a bit further. Spent some time thinking of how to work the first question on my own and tri

Answer 1

I'd strongly advise against recursion, since it might work for small number but not for bigger ones, and even if the solution might work, it would teach you a wrong approach.

def euler_1(sum, range_beg, range_end):
    for number in range( range_beg, range_end):
        if (( number % 3 ) == 0) or ((number % 5) == 0):
            sum += number
        else:
            pass

     return sum


print(euler_1( 0, 0, 1000))

This is more pythonic, reusable, faster and simpler to read and correct.
