A lot is dependent on your code.
If your code is not efficient.

then whether you have a position or not is a moot point.

Re: Sum only positive numbers from a list of variables [SOLVED]
1. add up all the numbers and save the result as var1
2. add up all the numbers in absolute value (ie change all the neg to pos) and save the result as var2
3. (var1 + var2)/2 = sum of all the positive numbers
4. (var1 - var2)/2 = sum of all the negative numbers
