Which part don't you understand?

Have you looked at any tutorials? There is a good one on this site + lots of reference info as well.

n- is a stepper variable
result is a most recent holder or sumator variable
billy is an intiger array and it holds variables as written
in main result gets numbers from array and stores it

billy [0] = 16
so result at that step is : result =0+16
at next step billy [1] = 2
so result after that is previous result =16 +2
next step where billy [2] = 77
so result = 18+77
and so on

whas this helpfull at all???
