Please guys i need help,
Your code so far

// Only change code below this line
class Thermostat {
constructor (fahrenheit){
  this._fahrenheit = fahrenheit;

}
// getter
get temperature() {
  return (5 / 9) * this._fahrenheit - 32;
}
// setter
set temperature(celsius) {
  this._fahrenheit = (celsius * 9.0) / 5 + 32;
}
}
// Only change code above this line

const thermos = new Thermostat(76); // Setting in Fahrenheit scale
let temp = thermos.temperature; // 24.44 in Celsius
thermos.temperature = 26;
temp = thermos.temperature; // 26 in Celsius

I would double check your formulae because the ()s aren’t quite right.

3

you should convert Fahrenheit into Celsius in the constructor

4

Sure, he could do the problem completely differently, but that code is mostly correct.

5

oh I see! :laughing:, he can do it in setter and getter methods

6

How do i move forward from here

7

Have you tried

8

For both of the temperature scales?

Remember that C = 5/9 * (F - 32) and F = C * 9.0 / 5 + 32, where F is the value of temperature in Fahrenheit, and C is the value of the same temperature in Celsius.

You did not exactly match the formulae given here in your conversions. Your conversion from F to C is wrong.

fixed it. Thanks for the help out
