Temperature Conversion Toolbox
This toolbox contains 12 very simple functions that will convert between 4 very popular units of measure of temperature. The supported units are as follows:
1. Fahrenheit
2. Celsius
3. Rankine
4. Kelvin
These functions are called much like their distance-converting counterparts (i.e. nm2km, nm2sm, etc).
The convention for naming these functions are as follow:
[unitsFrom]2[unitsTo]
where [unitsFrom] and [unitsTo] can be any one of the following tags:
1. far (Fahrenheit)
2. cel (Celsius)
3. rank (Rankine)
4. kel (Kelvin)
For example, to convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius.
temp_far = 100;
temp_cel = far2cel(temp_far);
disp(temp_cel)
Also included is a function called tempdim. This is very similar to MATLAB's distdim. It takes in the temperature, the units it is in, and the units you want to convert it to.
tempOut = tempdim(tempIn,unitsFrom,unitsTo)
