Suppose you have an investment plan where you invest a certain fixed amount every year. Modify futval.py to compute the total accumulation of your investment. The inputs to the program will be the amount to invest each year, the interest rate, and the number of years for the investment.
Operations
In mathematics and computer science, an operation is an event that is carried out to satisfy a given task. Basic operations of a computer system are input, processing, output, storage, and control.
Basic Operators
An operator is a symbol that indicates an operation to be performed. We are familiar with operators in mathematics; operators used in computer programming are—in many ways—similar to mathematical operators.
Division Operator
We all learnt about division—and the division operator—in school. You probably know of both these symbols as representing division:
Modulus Operator
Modulus can be represented either as (mod or modulo) in computing operation. Modulus comes under arithmetic operations. Any number or variable which produces absolute value is modulus functionality. Magnitude of any function is totally changed by modulo operator as it changes even negative value to positive.
Operators
In the realm of programming, operators refer to the symbols that perform some function. They are tasked with instructing the compiler on the type of action that needs to be performed on the values passed as operands. Operators can be used in mathematical formulas and equations. In programming languages like Python, C, and Java, a variety of operators are defined.

7. Suppose you have an investment plan where you invest a certain fixed
amount every year. Modify futval.py to compute the total accumulation
of your investment. The inputs to the program will be the amount to invest
each year, the interest rate, and the number of years for the investment.
8. As an alternative to APR, the interest accrued on an account is often de-
scribed in terms of a nominal rate and the number of compounding peri-
ods. For example, if the interest rate is 3% and the interest is compounded
quarterly, the account actually earns % interest every 3 months.
Modify the futval.py program to use this method of entering the
interest rate. The program should prompt the user for the yearly rate
(rate) and the number of times that the interest is compounded each year
(periods). To compute the value in ten years, the program will loop 10 *
periods times and accrue rate/period interest on each iteration.
9. Write a program that converts temperatures from Fahrenheit to Celsius.
10. Write a program that converts distances measured in kilometers to miles.
One kilometer is approximately 0.62 miles.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fb7cedb11-fb7c-4033-94c7-4a4c64a54796%2Fe518df46-9ce7-4e98-9aac-ee532acbd2c4%2F162xddk_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
