How to use while true loop for this qustion?

The Fahrenheit temperature is converted to Celsius temperature by the following formula , write a script file to accept temperature in Fahrenheit and calculate its Celsius equivalent for 5 times using DO WHILE loop.

While writing the Program please consider the Following:

1. The program must ask the user to input the temperature in Fahrenheit.
2. The program must display the temperature in Celsius.

Hello mahmoud,

Do you want to calculate the average of 5 times of "C" ?

Yes

This is not what is needed. The complete assignment was posted before but got deleted.

The requirement posted before was to use a "do while" loop. Each time through the loop, the program needs to prompt for a value and do temperature conversion and display the value. The loop is to be executed five times.

The assignment does not involve mean(): it involves using a while loop with exit condition at the end to loop a fixed number of times.

This is of course very easy so I have been explaining the structure to use instead of explicitly showing the counter logic, hoping to get the user to think about how to turn the general situation into the particular one. The user has not posted any attempts yet and the volunteers are likely getting the impression that the user is hoping that someone will provide a complete solution.

frankly, i was wating for someone's full answer. but i will try.

Since you saw the complete question, Is this script crrect ?

time = 5;
x = 1;
mindeg = -459.67;
maxdeg = 212;
while  x <= time
    F = input('inter the degree in Fahrenheit: ');
    if F < mindeg || F > maxdeg 
      disp("please inter a number between -459.67°F and 212°F.")
    continue
  end
          x = x + 1;
   C = ( F - 32 )*5/9;
    fprintf("the degree in Celsius is: %f°F \n",C)
 end

I do not at the moment recall any limits on the input temperatures. I would tend to expect that if temperatures as low as 0K are permitted then you would want to allow temperatures higher than 100C.

Sorry to ask again. is thes anser true?

x=1;
while  true
    F = input('inter the degree in Fahrenheit: ');
    C = ( F - 32 )*5/9;
    fprintf("the degree in Celsius is: %f°F \n",C)
    
    if x == 5
      break
    end
          x = x + 1;
end

It's okay.

Answer 1

[Walter Roberson]

assign initial conditions
while true
  do a calculation 
  if condition is satisfied 
    break;
  end 
 end

here, "condition is satisfied" needs to be expressed the opposite way than you would use for a "do while". For example in C

do {
 x = rand();
} while x > 0.1;

would become

while true 
  x = rand() ;
  if x <= 0.1; break; end 
end

Notice the C condition of x > 0.1 becomes the condition x <= 0.1

Hello

Here is an example of calculation

% Define the value of F used in the calculation as a "vector".
F = [70 80 75 84 92];
% Calculate the average value of F using the mean function.
AveC = mean(5/9*(F - 32))

AveC =

   26.7778
