2009-2010 Topic:
Create an application that will present a menu to
choose between calculating a mortgage or credit card balance reduction.
This should be presented on the introductory screen that describes the
two choices.
The mortgage calculator choice should allow any four of
five amounts (initial amount, down payment, interest, time, payment),
then present the fifth to the user.
The credit card reduction calculator should allow the
input of balance and interest rate. Given this information, allow the
input of amount of time or monthly payment then present the missing
value to the user.
In both cases, allow the user the option to print the
information or calculate another value.
