Message: [QUOTE="Martin Ambuhl, post: 1706734"] Please cite the page on which you claim to have found this program as Sather posted it. If that is not a typing error, then either are typing errors, or the program is presented as an example of a broken program. As it happens, the program on page of K&R1 (1978) has none of those three lines as shown in the posting by Mark Sather. On the left is the code Sather posted; indented is the code from K&R1 when it differs: /* Sather's posting */ /* K&R has this declarion below that for lower, upper, step, and has it as: */ float fahr, celsius; /* K&R has this correctly done: */ celsius = (5.0/9.0) * (fahr-32.0); /* K&R has this correctly done: */ printf("%4.0f %6.1f\n", fahr, celsius); Are you and Sather really claiming that K&R changed a working program in K&R1 to a grossly broken one in K&R2?
