Future Value Program

[Zeromos]

My program is not running, my class use this compiler cpp.sh/5cgy would appreciate someone helping me get this to run, im new to this so i need to it to be explained sesame street style. When i run it it has a huge mess

#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>

using namespace std;

// The general formula to calculate future values is: Future Value (FV) = (PresentValue).(1+r).(t)
void futureValue(double pV, double r, double t);
int main()
{
double pV = PresentValue;
double r = .05;
double t = 5;
cin >> pV ;
cout << "Please enter the Present Value:" << endl;
cin >> pV ;
cout << futureValue(pV, r, t);


return 0;

(PresentValue).(1+r).(t)
}

void futureValue (double pV, double r, double t)
{
cout << pV * (1+r) * t << endl;

}

Hi,

please use code tags for your code to make it more readable - http://www.cplusplus.com/articles/jEywvCM9/

double pV = PresentValue;
I don't see "PresentValue" Anywhere, what is this?

(PresentValue).(1+r).(t)
What are you trying to do here?

r is the interest rate in a period of time, t is the number of periods until a future moment
Present Value is the amount of money the user enters. Im trying to create a function that calculates the future value of the amount entered by the user. Im very new to programming so im still kinda lost
