G6_microbit Thermometer C & F

KittyCode Programming Challenge

Make a Fahrenheit and Celsius Thermometer With Your micro:bit

Program your micro:bit so you can use it as a thermometer. Every computer processor is equipped with a digital temperature sensing device. Computers need it to monitor their temperatures. You can utilize the micro:bit's temperature sensor to read the temperature of the surrounding environment!

1 - Start a new project in MakeCode

Go to "MakeCode.microbit.org" to start a new project by clicking the new project icon above. Click the purple plus box labeled "New Project" to begin.

2 - Display temperature in Celsius

Program your micro:bit to display the temperature in degrees celsius . Try these blocks:

3 - Display Celsius with"A" button

Program your micro:bit to display the temperature in degrees celsius when you press the "A" button. Try these blocks:

4 - Convert Celsius to Fahrenheit

You want your thermometer to give readings in Fahrenheit, but the micro:bit will only give you Celsius. What should you do? Use mathematical functions to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit. But beware, computers are so good at doing math that you will get answers with up to 9 decimal places! So, you will want to tell the computer to round its answers to the nearest whole number.

I don't know man. That looks REALLY hard ...
