Introduction

I began learning C++ today, and this is my first snippet. It's a temperature converter.

Then you type in the temp and it gives you the conversion.

Screen:

Grab the Code

// Temperature Converter
// Coded by MountainDew
 
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
 
int main ()
{
	int temp,fahrenheit,celsius;
	cout << "What is the temperature?  ";
	cin >> temp;
	fahrenheit = temp * 9 / 5 + 32;
	celsius = (temp - 32) * 5 / 9;
	cout << temp << " F = " << celsius << " C" << endl;
	cout << temp << " C = " << fahrenheit << " F" << endl << endl;
	system("pause");
}

Wish I still had visual installed, this could be done much easier.

'cin' a number then just display it converted to Fahrenheit and Celsius. This will shorten the code drastically.

Yeah, napalm has a point. You could also do it like Google "30 C to F" or "100 F to C".
