+Here's a more complex program.  It makes use of //for// loops to print a small multiplication table.
+<code>
+$ ed table.c
+?table.c
+a
+int main(argc, argv)
+    int argc;
+    char** argv;
+{
+    int i,j;
+    /* Use nested 'for' loops to print a 4x4 multiplication table. */
+    for(i=1;i<5;i++)
+    {
+        for(j=1;j<5;j++)
+        {
+            /* '%d' means 'Substitute a numerical value here' */
+            printf("%d x %d = %d\t", i, j, i * j);
+        }
+        /* '\n' is the "newline" character -- this moves the cursor to the next line
+           for the next row of the table */
+        printf("\n");

+Compiling this as in the above example and running it yields:
+<code>
+$ cc table.c
+$ ./a.out
+x 1 = 1       1 x 2 = 2       1 x 3 = 3       1 x 4 = 4
+x 1 = 2       2 x 2 = 4       2 x 3 = 6       2 x 4 = 8
+x 1 = 3       3 x 2 = 6       3 x 3 = 9       3 x 4 = 12
+x 1 = 4       4 x 2 = 8       4 x 3 = 12      4 x 4 = 16
