Programming Label [£J : Months for Savings to Overtake
Downpayment
Instead of calculating monthly a sequence like before, the task
here is to calculate a specific answer—the month at which sav-
ings are great enough to permit purchase of the house. We will
set up a counter for the number of months in R and use a logical
test (x>y, downpayment >savings) to decide if we should con-
tinue for another month or if the increased savings has overtaken
the required downpayment.
