# Introduction In this lab, you will learn how to compute the present value of a future amount using C programming. The lab covers the essential steps, including reading the financial parameters (future value, interest rate, and time period), and then applying the present value formula to calculate the present value. The lab provides a step-by-step guide with code examples to help you understand and implement the present value calculation in C. The lab demonstrates how to use the `scanf()` function to read user inputs, store them as double-precision floating-point numbers, and then perform the present value calculation using the formula: Present Value (PV) = Future Value (FV) / (1 + Rate)^Time. The calculated present value is then printed to the console, allowing you to see the result of the computation.
