2 cents worth of Rounding calculations

Irv has added a really neat print.pdf routine to his EUGTK amortization program: http://sites.google.com/view/euphotos/home Hey, Irv, how about adding the snippet programing samples to your examples or utilities folder - maximize exposure.

Examples below using Irv Mullins EuGtk version of amort.ex 
Same results using my console based amort.ex 

                   -- Without rounding 
monthly_payment=balance_remaining*(monthly_interest/(1.0-power(1.0+monthly_interest,-n_payments))) 
payment_allocated_to_interest=balance_remaining*monthly_interest 

 Principal = $10,000  Interest=18   # of payments = 12                                                                          -------------------------------------10,000.00
