Fred,
	I think you can find more info and tutorials at www.python.org.
Anyway, the for loops you are trying to write ca nbe expressed as:

for i in range(1,13):             # 1 is included, 13 is not
     for j in range(1,13):
         print "%4d" % (i*j),      # the comma at the end inhibits line breaks
     print                         # "print" alone prints a newline

Happy coding,
		Luigi
