A simple way would be get the parent viewgroup which holds all the EditTexts, loop through its children, and do whatever operation:

ViewGroup editTextsContainer = (ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.editTexts_container);
int sum = 0;
int i = edtTextsContainer.getChildCount();
for(int j=0;j<i;j++) {
    View child = editTextsContainer.getChildAt(i);
    if(child instanceof EditText) {
        sum += Integer.parseInt((EditText)child).getText());
        // handle cases where edittext text is not numbers, or set the inputType in xml to avoid
    }
}
myTextView.setText(""+sum);

Code is not tested, just giving you rough idea.
