/**
 * Exercise 8: Multiplication Table
 * PT821 - Object-Oriented Programming
 *
 * TASK:
 * Create a program that:
 * 1. Asks the user for a number
 * 2. Displays the multiplication table for that number (1-12)
 * 3. Uses a for loop to generate the table
 *
 * CONCEPTS PRACTICED:
 * - for loop
 * - Formatted output (printf)
 * - Multiplication operator

/*
 * SAMPLE OUTPUT:
 * =============
 *
 * === Multiplication Table Generator ===
 *
 * Enter a number: 7
 *
 * Multiplication Table for 7:
 * ================================
 * 7 x  1 =   7
 * 7 x  2 =  14
 * 7 x  3 =  21
 * 7 x  4 =  28
 * 7 x  5 =  35
 * 7 x  6 =  42
 * 7 x  7 =  49
 * 7 x  8 =  56
 * 7 x  9 =  63
 * 7 x 10 =  70
 * 7 x 11 =  77
 * 7 x 12 =  84
 * ================================
 *
 * EXTENSION CHALLENGE:
 * - Ask user for start and end range
 * - Create a full multiplication table (1-10 x 1-10) using nested loops
 * - Add an option to display tables for multiple numbers
