Code to convert temperatures

[maxoliver100]

Hi Guys trying to implement basic code for converting temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit. It is code from the C++ for dummies book 5th edition. I get the following errors when I compile:

Code is below , thanks !

#include <cstdio>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
// enter the temperature in Celsius
int celsius;
cout << “Enter the temperature in Celsius : ”;
cin >> celsius;
// calculate conversion factor for Celsius
// to Fahrenheit
int factor;
factor = 212 - 32;
// use conversion factor to convert Celsius
// into Fahrenheit values
int fahrenheit;
fahrenheit = factor * celsius / 100 + 32;
// output the results (followed by a NewLine)
cout << “Fahrenheit value is : ”;
cout << fahrenheit << endl;
// wait until user is ready before terminating program
// to allow the user to see the program results
system(“PAUSE”);
return 0;
}

The problem is here:

cout << “Enter the temperature in Celsius : ”;

and

cout << “Fahrenheit value is : ”;

and

system(“PAUSE”);

Delete that quotation mark and write the proper one, the program will compile . Do you copy paste the code from some site or pdf?

This looks like you used some kind of word processor on this code. You will need to delete and retype all the quotation marks, because they are non-ASCII characters.

Also once you get those problems ironed out you'll probably have problems with your calculations. Remember there are no fractional parts of an int so 1/2 will yield zero.
