+### A first program
+
+The `main` function in toc corresponds to the `main` function in C. This function is called when your program is run. So, this is a valid toc program which does nothing:
+
+```
+main ::= fn() {
+};
+```
+
+It declares a constant, `main`, which is a function with an empty body. Note that the syntax for declaring functions is the same as the syntax for declaring constants (it isn't something like `fn main() { ... }`).
+
+Assuming you have compiled the compiler (see `README.md` for instructions about that), you can compile it with
+
+```
+toc <your filename>
+```
+
+You will get a file called `out.c`, which you can then put through your C compiler to get an executable file which does nothing. Congratulations! You've written your first toc program.
