this is a simple temperature program i did using VC++ under win32 console application...it is simple but incorporates many things like user-defined functions, cin, cout, declaring integers.
the code is commented on to help ppl understand
code:
// temperature.cpp - converts Celsius to Fahrenheit
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int Celsius; //declares Celsius
int Fahrenheit; //declares Fahrenheit
void temp(int); // function prototype for temp()
int main()
{
cout << "Please enter a Celsius value: "; //displays the question in ("") on the screen
cin >> Celsius; // asks the user for the integer Celsius
temp(Celsius); //calls the temp function
return 0;
}
void temp(int Celsius) //the void is used to say that temp has no return value
{
Fahrenheit = Celsius * 1.8 + 32.0; //formula to change Celsius to Fahrenheit
cout << "The temperature " << Celsius <<
" degrees Celsius is equal to " << Fahrenheit << " degrees Fahrenheit.\n"; //displays the Celsius then the equivalent Fahrenheit
}
