convtemp

Convert to desired temperature units

Syntax

convertedValues = convtemp(valuesToConvert,inputTemperatureUnits,outputTemperatureUnits)

Description

convertedValues = convtemp(valuesToConvert,inputTemperatureUnits,outputTemperatureUnits) computes the conversion factor from specified input temperature units (inputTemperatureUnits) to specified output temperature units (outputTemperatureUnits). The function then applies the conversion factor to the valuesToConvert.

Examples

Convert Temperatures

Convert temperatures

Convert three temperatures from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit.

a = convtemp([0 100 15],'C','F')

a = 1×3

   32.0000  212.0000   59.0000
