Calculate Delta-v for a multi-stage rocket

User will be initially prompted for the number of stages and payload mass of the rocket. Then for each stage the user will provide the mass of the structure and propellant as well as the Specific Impulse for the engine in that stage.

Total Delta-v and Delta-v for each stage will be calculated utilizing the Ideal Rocket Equation aka Tsiolkovsky Rocket Equation:

The calculation does not take into account any external forces acting on the rocket.
