how to call function? (line 1)
how am i going to print ELIGIBLE or NOT ELIGIBLE(line 3)

 loan_calculate(); //how to call function?
 printf("Monthly payment <RM>:%f", monthly); //i cant print the value
 printf("Status: ", status); //how am i going to print ELIGIBLE or NOT ELIGIBLE
 
 printf("Status: ");

return 0;
}

void loan_calculate (float L, float DP, int Y, float S, float *monthlyPtr, char *statusPtr, float I){

*monthlyPtr = ((L - DP)+((L-DP)*(I/100)*Y))/(12*Y);

if (*monthlyPtr <= ((25/100)*(*monthlyPtr)))
*statusPtr = 'E';

else
*statusPtr = 'N';

return;
}

You need to create variables, assign them values, and pass them in the order specified by the prototype, just like you did with printf().

The loan_calculate function takes many arguments

void loan_calculate (float L, float DP, int Y, float S, float *monthlyPtr, char *statusPtr, float I){

but your have called the function with no arguments

loan_calculate();

Didn't the compiler show any error...

I guess this is also the continuation of this thread:

So refer this thread for the answers...

Why do you have to call loan_calculate with no arguments? That's... sloppy. Well the way you'd go about doing it is making a global structure that contains all of that information, then you call the function which gets information from that structure, and then change the structures information accordingly for the remainder of the program. In any serious software application, though, this would be an incredibly bad solution.
