How to save a variable to an array every time a while loop runs?

I want to save the result of my while loop every time it runs to an array. Then once all conversions have been run, the array that stores all the values will be summed.

raw_user_age = input("Number: ")

x = int(raw_user_age)

g=0

while g < x :
    if __name__ == "__main__":
        
        YOUR_ACCESS_KEY = ''
        url = 'https://api.exchangerate-api.com/v4/latest/USD'
        c = Currency_convertor(url)
        from_country = input("From Country: ")
        to_country = input("TO Country: ")
        amount = int(input("Amount: "))
        
        returnedamount=c.convert(from_country, to_country, amount)
        g += 1
        print(returnedamount)

First create your array before the beginning of the loop:

values_returned = []

You can use the append method to add an element to the array every time the loop runs:

values_returned.append(returnedamount)

After the loop is done, you can use the sum() function to get the sum of all values in the array:

sum(values_returned)

You can simply append the value to the array (list) like so:

list_ = []

value1 = 1
value2 = 2

list_.append(value1)
list_.append(value2)
