Try this :



#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(int argc, char * argv[]) {
        unsigned t, i, n, tot, c;

        if (argc < 4) {
                printf("use: %s  init_delay  delay_incr  num_retries\n", argv[0]);
                return 1;
        }
        t = atoi(argv[1]);
        i = atoi(argv[2]);
        n = atoi(argv[3]);
        tot = 0;
        for (c = 1; c <= n; c++) {
                printf("%02u\tsend-time = %-6u\tnext-try = %u\n", c, tot, t);

                tot += t;

                t += t / i;
        }

        return 0;
}
