I need help..bad

I recently missed a lecture due to bronchitis and I was doing fine in my beginning C class up to this point but I have a project due in a couple days using the while statement and I'm lost. The gist of the program is we are to enter a fee amount, a monthly payment amount, and a deposit amount and have the C program continue to count payment numbers until the amount owed reaches 0. I'm just not sure where to start.

I would probably start with asking the user for the fee amount.

No one is going to do your assignment for you. Show us code for as much as you know how to do and people will provide answers to your specific questions.

Start with

Code:

---

#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
    return 0;
}

---

Then try man printf, man scanf.

This is what I have so far. I dont think my while statement is correct because none of my calculations are working. :(

I attached it in a word document.

Please... post code in the open using the forum's code tags.

You haven't initialized out_bal. Currently you are checking it in your while loop but its value is undetermined. Maybe it's initialized to zero but it is unwise to rely on that.

You asked about the same project in another thread in which I pointed you to my thread which is the exact same program. It may help you to see a working one.
