Exercise 1.3: Temperature Table with Header

Code

#include <u.h>
#include <libc.h>

/* print Fahrenheit-Celsius table for fahr = 0, 20, ..., 300; 
   floating-point version, with header */

void main()
{
    float fahr, celsius;
    int lower, upper, step;

    lower = 0;      /* lower limit of temperature table */
    upper = 300;    /* upper limit */
    step = 20;      /* step size */

    fahr = lower;
    print(" F \t   C\n---\t------\n");
    while(fahr <= upper){
        celsius = (5.0/9.0) * (fahr-32.0);
        print("%3.0f\t%6.1f\n", fahr, celsius);
        fahr = fahr + step;
    }
}

Output

$ ./temp_header
