Carl Friedrich Gauss's anecdote of how he summed up 1 to 100 in an interesting manner using a for loop.

/*
 * I was reading about Carl Friedrich Gauss's anecdote of how he summed up 1 to 100
 * in an interesting manner. So, I wanted to make it with a loop (I know, I am a 
 * lazy guy) and came up with this pretty quickly... so quickly that I thought I did 
 * it wrong but the output was same as the great mathematician. But I think that
 * there is some another and easy way to do this, right?
 */

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
	int i, j;
	for (i = 0, j = 100; j > 0; i += j, j--);
	printf("%d", i);
	return 0;
}
// Output: 5050

So the point of the exercise?
