#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
#include<math.h>

void main()
{
   float p,r,i,t,ci,a;
   clrscr();

   printf("Enter Principal amount : ");
   scanf("%f",&p);
   printf("Enter interest rate : ");
   scanf("%f",&r);
   printf("Enter time period in years: ");
   scanf("%f",&t);

   i=1+(r/100);

   // ci=pow(i,t);
   ci=1;
   for(a=1;a<=t;a++)
   ci=ci*i;

   ci=p*ci-p;

   printf("Compound interest is : %.2f",ci);

   getch();
}

Enter Principal amount: 1000
Enter interest rate: 2
Enter time period in years: 1
Compound interest is : 20.00

Enter Principal amount: 1000
Enter interest rate: 2
Enter time period in years: 2
Compound interest is : 40.40

Enter Principal amount: 1000
Enter interest rate: 3
Enter time period in years: 4
Compound interest is : 125.51
