What is wrong with with my code

Question about the task

Our first converter!

Java Syntax, Level 2, Lesson 2

Resolved

Can u pls solve this

The convertCelsiusToFahrenheit(int celsius) method accepts a value in degrees Celsius. The method should convert the temperature and return the value in degrees Fahrenheit.
The Celsius temperature (TC) and the Fahrenheit temperature (TF) are related by the following relationship:
TF = (9 / 5) * TC + 32.

Consider this example:
A value of 41 is passed to the convertCelsiusToFahrenheit method.

Example output:
105.8

Requirements:

The convertCelsiusToFahrenheit(int) method must be public and static.
The convertCelsiusToFahrenheit method must return a double.
The convertCelsiusToFahrenheit method should not display anything.
The convertCelsiusToFahrenheit method must correctly convert degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit and return the result.

package com.codegym.task.task01.task0130; /* Our first converter! */ public class Solution { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println(convertCelsiusToFahrenheit(41)); } public static double convertCelsiusToFahrenheit(int celsius) { int TC = 41; double TF = (TC-32)*5/9; return TF; } }

You are applying Fahrenheit to celsius but you need to apply Celsius to Fahrenheit. And here you no need to assign value to TC variable in convertCelsiusToFahrenheit() method because of its take celsius value as a parameter that is passed by main() method. so in your cade, you can assign celsius to TC variable like int TC = celsius; or you can use this variable directly

solution

1.) In the "convertCelsiusToFarenheit(int celsius)" you must delete the line 14 because we don't need it. 2.) And instead in line 14 write - "double TC = celsius;" 3.) And in the line 15 please correct formula

solution

The task is to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit. Initial formula: TC = (TF - 32) * 5/9. You cannot just swap TC and TF this way TF = (TC-32)*5/9, you need the correct formula how to convert C to F. Try to solve equation to find TF.
