Tell us what’s happening:
Hey guys! So I actually got this to work, but I wanted to better understand it so I went to the Hint answer code and they gave me the code below:
class Thermostat {
constructor(fahrenheit) {
this.fahrenheit = fahrenheit;
}
get temperature() {
return (5 / 9) * (this.fahrenheit - 32);
}
set temperature(celsius) {
this.fahrenheit = (celsius * 9.0) / 5 + 32;
}
}
The code I used to make it work is below… Is there any benefit to using the code they gave me instead of the code I came up with? Thanks!
**Your code so far**
// Only change code below this line
class Thermostat {
constructor(fahrenheit) {
this._celcius = 5/9 * (fahrenheit - 32);
}
get temperature() {
return this._celcius;
}
set temperature(newTemp) {
this._celcius = newTemp;
}
}
// 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
