Actually I believe it was the source of the Nile-Lake Victoria(?) in Africa.
I mean this is one of the most important rivers on earth, it basically created one of the many subsequent ancient civilization(s)! The article I read did not offer any way to help avoid this disaster-does anyone know about this and how to help?

Thanks for your answers. dualspace was spot on. Thanks. yupchagee gave an answer very close, but the rounding and sequence of calculations probably made the difference. This is the VB6 code I am now using.

sngRate = sngRate * (intTerm / 365)
curPrincipal = curInterest / (sngRate / 100)

Thanks

I totally forgot, all I know is that the answer should look like:

f(x) = (_____)(_____)(_____)(_____)
