Hey,
There is this problem that is driving me nuts and I cannot get the program output values to be like this...
instead when I run the program I get this...
As you can see in the second pic, it just does the same calculation over and over again for each year.
I already tried doing a loop but it still won't do a separate calculation for each year. Like I said, it does the same calculation over and over again for each year.
Therefore,
What would be the proper technique to handle such a calculation?
I tried nested loops already but I still get the same incorrect output.
Here is the part of the code that does the calculation...
Thanks in advance.
If necessary, here's the whole code for the program...

Code:
private void processInputs()
{
int year;
double interest, principle, answer, answer1, answer2, answer3, answer4;
year = numberOfYearsInput.getNumber();
interest = interestRateInput.getNumber();
principle = initialPrincipleInput.getNumber();
for(int counter = 1; counter <= year; counter++)
{
answer3 = principle;
answer = interest + 100;
answer1 = answer / 100;
answer2 = answer3 * answer1 * answer1 * answer1 * answer1;
answer4 = answer2 - answer3;
displayNumbers(counter, answer3, answer4, answer2);
}
}
private void displayNumbers (int year1, double num1, double num2, double num3)
{
String numberLine = Format.justify ('l', year1, 20) +
Format.justify ('r', num1, 20, 2) +
Format.justify ('r', num2, 33, 2) +
Format.justify ('r', num3, 40, 2);
output.append (numberLine + "\n");
}Thanks in advance.
