Here is another sample program that uses a FOR-NEXT loop to print all the possible combinations of dots and spaces in numeric order:

10 REM SAMPLE 2

20 WIDTH “LPT1:”,255

30NDOTS = 256 ‘MAXIMUM POSSIBLE COMBINATIONS

40LPRINT CHR$(27);CHR$(75);CHR$(NDOTS MOD 256); CHR$(FIX(NDOTS/256));

50REM START GRAPHICS 256 COLUMNS

60FOR I=0 TO NDOTS-1

70LPRINT CHR$(I);

80NEXT I

90PRlNT:REM LINE FEED

A word of explanation about line 20. The IBM Personal Computer is set for a maximum line length of 80 characters, so it adds a Carriage Return and Line Feed after the 80th character. Because the data for each column is treated as a character, your computer will send CR and LF codes after the data for the 80th column, and the printer will interpret these codes as graphics information and print them. A WIDTH statement changes the maximum length of a line, and placing the number 255 in a WIDTH statement eliminates any length restriction. (See your IBM BASIC Manual for details.)

The printout looks like this:
