Note, TUHS probably isn't the *best* forum to ask for help with basic C
programs. :-)

That said, I suspect you mis-transcribed the program and that the line,
`sum = sum + 1;` should be `sum = sum + i;`, or more idiomatically, `sum +=
i;`.  Indeed, the whole program could be written:

#include <stdio.h>

int
main(void)
{
        int i, sum = 0;
        for (i = 1; i <= 100; i++)
                sum += i;
        printf("%d\n", sum);
        return 0;
}

If you're using a C99 or later compiler, you can be slightly more succinct:

#include <stdio.h>

int
main(void)
{
        int sum = 0;
        for (int i = 1; i <= 100; i++)
                sum += i;
        printf("%d\n", sum);
        return 0;
}

Hope that helps!

       - Dan C.
