    How can I convert Celsious to Faraneint (or something like that)? And F to Celsius?

    Formulae

    Fahrenheit = 32 + 9 * Celsius / 5

    Celsius = (Fahrenheit - 32) * 5 / 9

    For a quick and rough guide to conversion:

    Fahrenheit = Celsius * 2 + 30

    Notice that it is the ecuation of a line

    y=mx+b

    °F = 1.8 °C + 32
    If things were easy, users might be programmers.

    Exclamation Wow!

    How uncanny is that?

    That discovery could change the how way we think about temperature!
    Everything I say is either loose interpretation of dubious facts or idle speculation rooted in irrational sentiment.

    maybe we should implement a new temperature unit with a logaritmic scale
    Use
    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
    To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.

    That would be cool !!!

    Just like the decibels (I´m not sure about the spelling) works.

    0 pK = 1K = -272 C
    1 pK = 10K = -263 C
    2 pK = 100K = -173 C
    3 pK = 1000K = 727 C
    Wow that become hot really fast

    hmm i think 2.471 pK is more comfortable
