nevermind:

[code]

#include <stdio.h>
int main (void) {


int countdays = 7;
double deposit = 0.01;
int totaldays= 0;
double balance = 0.01;
double inputMoney;

printf("Please enter the amount of money you want to accumulate:");
scanf("%lf", &inputMoney);

printf("\n");
printf("DAY\t\tDEPOSIT\t\tBALANCE\n");
printf("---\t\t-------\t\t-------\n");

while(balance <= inputMoney)
{

printf("%3d %9.2lf %10.2lf\n", countdays, deposit, balance);
countdays = countdays + 7;
totaldays++;
deposit = deposit + (deposit * 2);
balance += deposit;


}
printf("\n");
printf("It took %d weeks to accumulate at least $%.2lf\n", totaldays, inputMoney);

return 0;
}

I ripped the code off from someone else and tailored the logic to work better.

I'm sure there is a more elegant way to do this with a for loop in c, but I don't know c so..

I hope I interpreted the question correctly.
