 MSN Encarta - Alphabet
In early Semitic languages, for example, the pictograph representing the word for house, beth in the spoken language, eventually came to represent the sound of the consonant b, the first sound in beth.
For example, the pictographs for sun and tree were combined to represent the concept of east.
English, for example, can represent the long o sound with a single o (as in go), the letters ow (as in glow), the letters oa (as in throat), and the letters ew (as in sew).

 Cascading Style Sheets, level 1
For example, by setting the 'float' property of an image to 'left', the image is moved to the left until the margin, padding or border of another block-level element is reached.
But, as the example shows, the placement of an element is relative to ancestors and siblings, so these elements' padding and margin properties have an effect on their children.
Examples of constraints of the presentation medium are: limited resources (fonts, color) and limited resolution (so margins may not be accurate).

 Thomson Learning - InfoTrac College Edition - InfoWrite
The distinction between a description or narration and an example essay relies on the reader's ability to draw a connection between the subject and the larger issue it is supposed to illustrate.
Examples can provide powerful support for an argument because they can be used to introduce a human element, a brief narrative.

 Batch File Help
For example, a batch file could be used to run frequently run commands, deleting a series of files, moving files, etc. A simple batch file does not require any special programming skills and can be done by users who only know DOS commands.
A good example of a batch file for someone who is more familiar with Windows or the MacOS is to think of a batch file as a shortcut in Windows or an icon on the MacOS.
Another example of a very well known batch file is the autoexec.bat, which is a simple boot file loaded each time the computer is loaded on MS-DOS and early Windows computers.
