Sum of the series

Question: In mathematics, sum of the series from 1 to n can be calculated by Equation 1.

From this formula sum of the numbers from a to b can be derived as in Equation 2. Write a program that is going to get two numbers a and b, then the program is going to calculate sum of the series from a to b.

Input specification: You will be given 2 integers (a and b) where 0 ≤ (a and b) ≤ 50,000.

Output specification: Show one number, sum of the numbers from a to b.

Sample Input I
5 10
Sample Input II
1 10000
Sample Output I
45
Sample Output II
50005000

Explanation: To calculate sum of the numbers from 5 to 10, first sum of the numbers from 1 to 10 (55) and sum of the numbers from 1 to 4 (10) are calculated.
Then, 55 - 10 = 45.
