hello there..! can somebody help me how to call this function...the program function will appear when i select the case no 3 at swich code... however there is an error appear...bytheway is it correct i using "void loan_schedule ();"
..to Generate loan payment schedule coding...when i choose number 3 at main menu...
#include <math.h> // pow()
#include <iostream.h>
#include <iomanip.h> // setprecision(), setw()
