Well, of course it can't if you don't have any code for it.

At least make an attempt.

As a hint, save the total amount made today in a variable, then triple that amount into another variable, then add that back into the original variable and repeat the process. A for loop is enough.

Now, make an attempt at it and post that code if it doesn't work.

Edit: No idea why this double posted.
