Eldon I used your code and changed it some. I don't know what some of the
other formulas you were using were so I just stuck with the wind chill
factor formula. I also changed double to float because it was giving me
some weird answers and float seemed to give a result which sounded like
what I remember wind chill used to sound like.(I used to live in western
New York btwn Buffalo and Rochester)-bruce
/*windchill.c— formula for wind chill factor is based on a formula on
pg.77 of "1001 things to do with your Amiga"by Sawusch &Prochnow by TAB
books. H=(.14+.47*V)(36.5-T) where H= chill in calories lost per square
centimeter, V=wind velocity(miles per second), and T=
temperature(Centigrade).Compiler options used are math=regular (library
used) and link. I do not know if the formulas are right, but it does
compile in vers.6 SAS; also I could be way off base because I am just
learning how to program. */ #include <stdio.h> #include <math.h>
void main()
{
float t,v,h,tc;
printf("This will Calculate Wind Chill Factor.\n");
printf("Enter Current Temperature in Degrees F.\n");
scanf("%f",&t);
printf("Enter Current Wind Speed in M.P.H.\n");
scanf("%f",&v);
v=v/3600;/*to derive miles per second i.e. 3600 secs/hr.*/
tc=((t-32.0)*5)/9;/*changes Farenheit to Centigrade*/
h=(.14+(.47*v))*(36.5-tc);/*wind chill factor formula */
printf("The Wind Chill Factor is %f \n",h); }
