Im trying to create a system that calculates interest over ten years but for some reason i keep getting an error message.
I am about 99% this is the correct text for the program yet there is an error message of: Error using ==> power
Matrix dimensions must agree.
So my t vector is not agreeing with my interest formula or what?

delete g114x05.txt; diary g0114x05.txt
clear; clc; close all; echo on

% Gilat 114/05
%
%Script determining account balance in a savings account
r=('Enter Interest Rate (as a percent) :')
P=('Enter Principal :')
t=[1:10];
A=P*(1+r/100).^t;
echo off;
table=[t' A']

fprintf(' \n')
fprintf('Time Amount \n')
fprintf('(yrs) ($) \n')
fprintf('------------------------ \n')
fprintf('%4i %8.2f \n',table')
echo off ;diary off;

Perhaps the INPUT function is what you are looking for.
