Below are a set of code examples demonstrating the use of the 'for' statement. The first one represents the basic 'for' loop as described in Chapter 3, Section VIII.

// A program to add up 10 expenses using a for loop
// file: ch3xmpl6.cpp
#include <iostream.h>

const int NUM_TIMES_TO_LOOP = 10;
void main()
{
// Purpose:    A program to add up 10 expenses using a for loop
// Receives:    NONE
// Returns:     NONE

	char expenseCode;
	double expense;
	double totalExpenses = 0;


	for (int numExpenses = 0; numExpenses < NUM_TIMES_TO_LOOP;
				numExpenses++)
	{	cout << "Please enter an expense\n";
		cin >> expense;
		totalExpenses += expense;
	}
	cout << "The " << NUM_TIMES_TO_LOOP << " expenses totaled $"
		  << totalExpenses << endl;
}
