Write a C++ temperature conversion program which does the following: Write a function called toCelsiusByReference, which takes a parameter temperature by reference, and returns a bool: bool toCelsiusByReference(float &temperature) It should do two things: change the parameter temperature from Fahrenheit to the equivalent Celsius temperature return true if the parameter was was above freezing (>32 F), return false if freezing or below. Demonstrate that the function works by writing a main() function that asks the user to input any Fahrenheit temperature, calling the function to convert, and then printing out the celsius temperature. Also, use the bool returned from the function to print out a message saying if it's above freezing or not. Your cout statements must all be in main(), they must not be in your function. Your output should look something like this: Welcome to the temperature converter! Please enter a temperature in Fahrenheit: 60 The equivalent Celsius is: 15.6 This temperature is above freezing

Question

Write a C++ temperature conversion program which does the following:

  • Write a function called toCelsiusByReference, which takes a parameter temperature by reference, and returns a bool:

bool toCelsiusByReference(float &temperature)

  • It should do two things:
    • change the parameter temperature from Fahrenheit to the equivalent Celsius temperature
    • return true if the parameter was was above freezing (>32 F), return false if freezing or below.
  • Demonstrate that the function works by writing a main() function that asks the user to input any Fahrenheit temperature, calling the function to convert, and then printing out the celsius temperature.  Also, use the bool returned from the function to print out a message saying if it's above freezing or not.  Your cout statements must all be in main(), they must not be in your function.
  • Your output should look something like this:

Welcome to the temperature converter!
Please enter a temperature in Fahrenheit: 60
The equivalent Celsius is: 15.6
This temperature is above freezing
