Looking for ugly code comparisons WAS: Slashdotter looking for kids' programming language

[Judy Perry]

I again come hat-in-hand to ask for some really ugly-looking code examples
in those "real world" programming languages to compare with Rev for the
Slashdot thread.
Posters there are actually recommending things like Assembly(!), Java, & C#!
<shudders>

Specifically the OP was looking to teach basics such as conditionals,
variables & loops.

Does anyone have any ugly examples?
