actually there were 2 problems, the first one was the subtraction problem,
I couldn't do it, the max(67-age) didn't work for me... the code with tAge worked for me.
the second prob was the fact that failed tries I did still were written in the input field.

have a great day!

Hi all,
thank you for your help, you're the best!
I finally figured this out, couldn't do it without you!
hope you all having a great day <3 , if not hope it'll get better ASAP.

Hi there,
I'm trying to make a function to process a number through a formula:

1000000/((((1+10%)^(67- {the number} ))-1)/10%)

btw this number can be changed by the user, and then there'll be a different result.
Thanks for your help,
