Simple temp conversion program

[borman]

Hello...I am just starting out in C and was wondering what would be the best formula to enter into a fahr to celsius mainline?<br>
<br>
<br>
#include&lt;stdio.h&gt;<br>
<br>
#define ?????<br>
<br>
int main()<br>
<br>
{<br>
<br>
printf(??);<br>
scanf(.....);<br>
<br>
return(0)<br>
}<br>
/*your help would be much appreciated*/<br>
/*thanks*/<br>
<br>

If i understand your question you just want to a fareniheit to calsius convert. If i remember that can be done with say<br>
<br>
int x, y;<br>
<br>
printf(

Hi i was wondering if their was anyway to remove the null at the end of a sting for print out. I talked with my professor for a while about this and he coudn't think of a way to do it. The print out is using fwrite, i know how to do it using fprintf.<br>
<br>
thanks <br>

#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;<br>
<br>
void main()<br>
<br>
{<br>
float Celsius = 0;<br>
<br>
float Fahrenheit = 0;<br>
<br>
printf(&quot;Please enter the Fahrenheit temperature: &quot;<br>
<br>
scanf(&quot;%f&quot;, &Fahrenheit);<br>
<br>
Celsius = ((Fahrenheit - 32)5)/9;<br>
<br>
printf(&quot;\nThe temperature is %7.2f degrees Celsius\n\n&quot;, Celsius);<br>
}

Thanks code head...I tried the declarations and the other statements, then I modified the code a bit....<br>
<br>
#include&lt;stdio.h&gt;<br>
<br>
int main ()<br>
<br>
{<br>
double fahr;<br>
double celsuis;<br>
double fahrenheit; <br>
<br>
printf(&quot;Enter Farhenheit value: \n\n&quot;<br>
scanf(&quot;%lf&quot;, &fahr);<br>
<br>
<br>
printf(&quot;Centigrade value: %.2lf\n&quot;, (fahr-32) * (5.0/9.0)); <br>
<br>
<br>
return (0);<br>
<br>
}<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>

C/5 = (F-32)/9.<br>
<br>
Assign to a float value<br>
Does it answer your question ?<br>
Thanx,<br>
