Program to find compound interest

What is ‘Compound interest’?
Compound interest is the addition of interest to the principal sum of a loan or deposit, or in other words, interest on interest. It is the result of reinvesting interest, rather than paying it out, so that interest in the next period is then earned on the principal sum plus previously-accumulated interest. Compound interest is standard in finance and economics.

Compound interest may be contrasted with simple interest, where interest is not added to the principal, so there is no compounding.

Compound Interest formula:

Formula to calculate compound interest annually is given by:

Compound Interest = P(1 + R/100)^r
Where,
P is principle amount
R is the rate and
T is the time span

Pseudo Code:

Input principle amount. Store it in some variable say principle.
Input time in some variable say time.
Input rate in some variable say rate.
Calculate compound interest using formula, 
Compound Interest = principle * (1 + rate / 100) ^time).
Finally, print the resultant value of CI.

Example:

Input : Principle (amount): 1200
        Time: 2
        Rate: 5.4
Output : Compound Interest = 1333.099243

    /* Calculate compound interest */
    double CI = principle * (pow((1 + rate / 100), time)); 
  
    cout << "Compound interest is " << CI; 
  
    return 0; 
}

<?php 
// PHP program to find  
// compound interest for 
// given values. 
  
$principle = 10000; 
$rate = 10.25;  
$time = 5; 
  
// Calculate compound interest 
$CI = $principle * (pow((1 +  
      $rate / 100), $time)); 
  
echo("Compound interest is " . $CI); 
  
// This code is contributed by Ajit. 
?> 

Output:

Compound interest is 16288.9
