    I need help with a little calculation on C

    Hello smart ones,
    Please I want to perform this calculation and save it in a variable 'x'. like
    X1. A
    X2. A+H
    X3. A+H+CH
    X4. A+H+CH+C^2H
    X5. A+H+CH+C^3H .....etc
    to 15 times
    and save it in variable x. I will use x to calculate this function y = (6 * pow(x,2) + 29*x + 14) / (32 - pow(x,5)). so that when I print 'y', I will get the values from X1 to X15

    double i, x = a;
    for (i = 0; i < b ; i++)
    x = x + pow(c,i)* h

    I Used this but I'm getting the value from X2 instead of from X1

    Thank you. It's urgent, I am new to programming..

    So this?
    Code:
    for (i = 0; i < b ; i++) {
        x = x + pow(c,i)* h;
        y = (6 * pow(x,2) + 29*x + 14) / (32 - pow(x,5));
    }
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    This is what I get. Note the value of A is 0.1.
    x1 should be 0.1 not 0.3

    Do you have code for that, or is it just a screen-shot from your assignment.

    > x1 should be 0.1 not 0.3
    Code:
    for (i = 0; i < b ; i++, x = xnew ) {
        xnew = x + pow(c,i)* h;
        // figure out whether you need x or xnew in this calc.
        y = (6 * pow(x,2) + 29*x + 14) / (32 - pow(x,5));
        // figure out whether you print x or xnew along with y
    }
