Chapter 1 EX: 2, variables, inputs

Hello,

I am using MatLab grader and I'm asked to convert from F to C I know the conversion would be

• (5/9) * (ftemp-32)

I know this is simple, but I have had over 30 attempts. I have tried using fprintf and disp to display the conversion. Nothing is working. It says the error is from F to C. I tried fixing that everyway I know how.I'm not sure what else I can do.

The problem is: Given Variable, ftemp as your input, convert to celsuis and store the result as ctemp

Examples:

input ftemp= 32

output ctemp = 0

Hannah - what is the code that you have written? Have you created a function to do this conversion?

I have writted many codes that look along the lines of this:

The converision is below under ctemp

ftemp = input 
ctemp = (5/9) * (ftemp-32)
disp ctemp

I just over thought it... The real solutions is this..

function ctemp = FtoC(ftemp)
  ctemp = (5/9) * (ftemp - 32) 
end
