Thread: Not Displaying what I need

* This program will calculate and display the monthly
* payment amount to fully amortize an input loan amount
* over a specific term at percentage of interest from a list
* selection menu of of available mortgage loans.
I've tried taken my code from the previous assignment and input that here. This is homework, just seeking help and understanding. PLEASE!!!
