Help with first class project

Mike Patel

I have just started this class two days ago. I already have an assignment due today. I work all day and I just got the assignment in the afternoon. I understand the logic that needs needs to be used but don't know the actual coding part. Can someone please help. Here is the assignment.

Problem Description: Accept the temperature from the user. If the temperature is

greater than or equal to 32, display a message "The climate is good today" and check

whether the temperature is exactly equal to 32. If it is exactly equal to 32, display a

message "The temperature is 32". If the temperature is greater than 32, then display

a message "It is hot today"

To get you started, here's some basic code to do that though I haven't included any error checking:

using System;

class Program
{
static void Main()
{
Console.Write("Please enter the temperature : ");
double temperature = double.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
if (temperature >= 32)
{
Console.WriteLine("The climate is good today");
if (temperature == 32)
{
Console.WriteLine("The temperature is 32");
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("It is hot today");
}
}
Console.ReadKey();
}
}

Mike,

In the statement

double temperature = double.parse(Console.ReadLine());

DOUBLE is the data type of the variable "temperature" as temperature can be a decimal value like 32.5, 19.1 etc. This is where we have declared our variable.

We have accepted the value from the user which is 'Console.ReadLine()' part.
This returns the user input as a string. To store it in a variable of type double, we have converted the string using double.parse()

Thanks for helping. I understood everything except the code below. Why use the term double temperature, where did we declare temperature and what is double.parse?

double temperature = double.parse(Console.ReadLine());
