when you put money into a bank it will grow with interest. you put in a starting value, what's called a principle. next you put in the rate of interest which is usualy less than or equal to 5%, which you would put in as 5. then you input a compound frequency which is basically saying "update my balance x times a year" then you input the deposit and it's frequency. finally you input the amount of years its going to grow. the final value is the sum of the product of the principle a
This only adds a block for exponentiation, if you want to do nth roots, you can use the trick x^(1/y) where x is the radicand and the y is the degree. If you want a logarithmic function where you can use any base, you don’t need a custom exponentiation block. You can use log(x)/log(b) where x is the anti-logarithm and b is the base. You can also use this trick with natural log.
