Heres a small script I wrote to calculate the future value.
#!/usr/bin/env python # This script calculate the future value iv = float(raw_input("Enter initial value: ")); rate = float(raw_input("Enter interest rate: ")); times = int(raw_input("Enter the amount of years: ")); fv = iv*((1 + (rate/100))**times) print "Final amount is: %.2f." %fv
