title: The sum of the first natural 100 numbers
body: <p>new to coding,
  Quick Homework problem Im having trouble on.
  I must find the sum of the first 100 natural numbers. 1+2+3+4, and so on. While using &quot;while loops&quot;.</p>
  <p>This is what I have so far.</p>
  <pre><code>    Dim sum, count As Integer
      Const num As Integer = 1
  
      Console.WriteLine(&quot;The Sum of the first 100 natural numbers is:&quot;) 
  
   
  
      count = num + 1
  
      While count &lt;= 100 
          Count = num + count
          
      End While
          Sum = count
  
      Console.WriteLine(&quot;{0}&quot;, sum) 
      Console.ReadLine()
  </code></pre>
  <p>I know for a fact the math and while loop is incorrect, but Im not sure how to fix it. I keep getting 101 as my answer.</p>
