#!/usr/bin/gawk # Challenge 011 # # Challenge #1 # Write a script that computes the equal point in the Fahrenheit and Celsius # scales, knowing that the freezing point of water is 32oF and 0oC, and that # the boiling point of water is 212oF and 100oC. This challenge was proposed # by Laurent Rosenfeld. # # F = (C * 9/5) + 32 # F = C = x # => x = (x * 9/5) + 32 # <=> x * (1 - 9/5) = 32 # <=> x = 32 / (1 - 9/5) BEGIN { printf "%.1f\n", 32 / (1 - 9/5); exit 0; }
