Help Please

[JavierLathrop]

I’m pretty new to C Programing and I am trying to make a very basic calculator that calculates interest. If anyone could give me some ideas that would be great because everytime I try running my programs it either spits out a random number or the program freezes.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thank You.
