Do you have any questions or comments for the posted code?

Ya sorry thought I put them in. Ya I need assistance comming up with the code for caculating the interest / so when a user puts in loan amount/Interest rate/terms and monthly payments the interest will be calculated.

Any help would be greatly appreciated/ thanks

It does compile and when I print it out in html in a web form it keeps generating the calculations using 35,000 / so when you push clear it only clears the top fields / but when you put in a different loan amount it won't register still uses the old one.

code for caculating the interest / so when a user puts in loan amount/Interest rate/terms and monthly payments the interest will be calculated.

Can you explain what the code does now when it executes and what the problems are with it?
What do you input to the program and what does it output?
Do you have the formula for calculating interest?

For testing can you preload all the needed values into the text fields so that the only operation required for testing is to press a button?
