A colleague did:

total=0
for n in range(10):

     n= int(input("Enter a number: "))

Here, you are reusing "n" for two different things:
1. The loop index, indicating which number you ask for
2. The number entered from the user

This is avery bad thing.

It is not as bad as "int = int(input('Number? '))"
