Predict the size of a population of organisms

Write a program that will predict the size of a population of organisms. The program should ask for the starting number of organisms, their average daily population increase (as a percentage), and the number of days they will multiply. For example, a population might begin with two organisms, have an average daily increase of 50 percent, and will be allowed to multiply for seven days. The program should use a loop to display the size of the population for each day. So for the previous example, the output should look like:

Day Organisms


1 2.0

2 3.0

3 4.5

4 6.75

5 10.125

6 15.1875

7 22.78125

Input validation: Do not accept a number less than 2 for the staring size of the population. Do not accept a negative number for average percent daily population increase. Do not accept a number less than 1 for the number of days they will multiply.
