Compound Interest © 1981 Fabris, Robert.
Onboard Calculator, ($), has not been utilized fully. The ARCADIAN tutorial on its basic operation was published in Vol. 1, p.32. At that time, each digit of each number had to be individually entered, an arduous task. Then, in Vol. 2, p.2, Gerry Halquist presented a loan payment program with greatly simplified input, but still having restrictions (such as interest had to be entered in 5 digit format). Now Jess Shadle has made up a number of programs where the input format can be almost anything and the program will accept and utilize it. One program is included this issue, Compound Interest.
