Hi Nagaraju, As per my knowledge, you are trying to add the whole array at once rather than iterating each index value. This worked for me, hope it will help you!

let numbers = [2,8,1,16,4,3,9]
var sum = 0
var counter = 0

// Enter your code below
while counter < numbers.count{
var newValue = numbers[counter]
sum = sum + newValue
counter += 1
}
