    Which part of the above do you find difficult to understand? I think it is the part where it says -

    a= num%10;
    n= num/10;

    Am I right?

    First part of understanding the code would be to understand what the % operator does.

    Check this out simpler program:

    int num,sum=0;
printf("Enter a number\n");
scanf("%d",&num);
 
while(num >0){
         
            sum=sum+num%10;
            num=num/10;
         
        }
 
printf("The sum of the digits of %d is    %d\n",num,sum);
    It will return you sum of any digit number.
    % operator is also called as modulo, That means it will return the reminder of operation.
    ps: I wrote this program in java. I hope it good in syntax wise for C.

    It does not find sum of 5 numbers But it finds the sum of the digits of a five digit number

    it would be good if we use for loop in this program
