Daily Temperature Change

Imagine you are tracking the daily temperature changes for a week. For each day, you are given the change in temperature compared to the previous day. You need to calculate the total temperature for a specific range of days. Write a function to return the sum of temperatures from day A to day B (both inclusive). Assume the temperature at day 1 is 0 degrees. Input format: - The first line contains an integer N (1 ≤ N ≤ 100). - The second line contains N integers representing the temperature changes. - The third line contains two integers A and B (1 ≤ A ≤ B ≤ N). Output format: - An integer representing the total temperature from day A to day B. Example: Input: 5 10 -5 15 -10 5 2 4 Output: 10
