Assume that n is assigned a positive integer. Write code using the while loop to assign to total the sum of the first n whole numbers as follows:

If the number is even, halve and add it;

If the number is odd, add it$.$

For example, if n is $5,$ total will be $1+(2/2)+3+(4/2)+5=12.$

Reminder: Whole numbers are $1,2,3,...($and so on$).$

n $=5$

total $=5$

i $=1$

while i $<$ n:

if i $\%2==0$:

total $+=$ i$/2$

else:

total $+=$ i

i $+=1$

print$($total$)$
