why do you need to /n when you only want to calc the sum of these numbers?
and where is your main() ?? it should be calc_sum() right?

Use the while loop for indeterminate number of entries, for loop for fixed number. If you need to use main(), define main to call your calc_sum function. Let the user know how to stop the loop.

# while loop is used to sum an indeterminate number of integers entered, until you enter a zero 

def calc_sum():
    sum = 0
    x = input("Enter a number (0 to stop) >> ")
    while x != 0:
        sum = sum + x
        x = input("Enter a number (0 to stop) >> ")
    print "\nThe sum of the numbers is", sum 

def main():
    calc_sum()

main()
