Please post what you have tried on that and be a little more specific.

You may want something like this:[CODE=python]
>>> sumofsqs = 0
>>> i = 0
>>> while i < 5:
... i += 1
... sumofsqs += i*i
...
>>> print sumofsqs
55
>>> [/CODE]

[code=Python]
>>> series = (3,6,9,12,15,18 ,21,24)
>>> total = sum([series[i]**2 for i in range(5)])
>>> total
495
>>> [/code]
