+# Interest On Interest #
+This is a simple function I've made with PHP to calculate interest on interest.
+It's nothing fancy at all, but maybe it will be useful to someone. I've made it
+while learning PHP.
+
+## Usage ##
+First argument to the script is the amount of money on your savings account, the
+second argument is the interest (without the percent sign) and the third
+(optional) argument is the number of years. For example if you have 50.000 in
+your savings account, and the interest is 3% and you want to know how much
+money you will have after 8 years:
+
+    php interest.php 50000 3 8
+
+Or if you've made the script executable you can run it as follow:
+
+    ./interest 50000 3 8
+
+If you leave out the number of years the script will calulate the savings after
+one year.
