Mortgage Calculation Program

[ghostrider]

I'm trying to get this program to calualte the totals of 3 different mortgages using arrays.I need the program to calculate the loans to the end of each term. Can someone point me in the right direction, before I lose my mind!

Explain what you have done and what you now need help with.

[ghostrider]

Well what I have done is created a program that displays the monthly cost for 3 different loans. Using the same principle, but different interest rates and number of years. So now I'm trying to figure out how to make it calculate the mortgages through the life of each loan using the same arrays and a for loop. So basically I need all the loans to be zeroed out at the end of each loan term.

Not necessatrily in good java (and I'm not sure whether answering the question but...).....

int month = 0;
int originalTot = loanAmount;
while(loanAmount < monthlyAmount)
{
  loanAmount = loanAmount - monthlyAmount;
  month ++
}
System.out.println("The loan of " +originalTot + "was paid off in " + (month+1) + " months, with a final payment of " + loanAmount");
