confused with program to convert tempatures

[wtf???]

i spent a long time trying to fix this probably somthing stupid but please help me.
i dont see any problem but its probably somthing stupid.

it compiles ok and when i run it it works until i get to the equations it prints somthing like
1.62111e-307 here is my code i dont know why but it posted when i pressed the space bar.

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <cstdio>
#include <fstream>

using namespace std;


int main()
{

          system("COLOR 5");
          system("TITLE tempature converter");
          
          double firstNumber, answer;
          char f, c, k, operation, repeat, form;
          char *tempatures;

          do
          {
          cout <<"\n\n\n\t \t \t \tINSTRUCTIONS \n \n First enter the number you will start with, then the form the number is in \n and lastly the form you want to convert to. \n \n c = celsius \n k = kalvin \n f = fahrenheit";

          cout <<"\n \n \n \n Enter the number you will start with: ";
          cin >> firstNumber;
          
          cout <<"\n Enter the form of the number you have (c/f/k): ";

             }
          }
          while (repeat == 'y');
}

ps: i probably have some usless headers in there because of other stuff i was doing that didnt work.:)

Let's see. In order to help you fix your code, you actually need to post your code.

[wtf???]

sorry i didnt mean to post it just did when i pressed space bar idk why

[Dave Sinkula]

Hopefully you saw warnings such as this:

main.cpp: In function `int main()':
main.cpp:38: warning: statement has no effect
main.cpp:43: warning: statement has no effect
main.cpp:48: warning: statement has no effect
main.cpp:55: warning: statement has no effect
main.cpp:60: warning: statement has no effect
main.cpp:65: warning: statement has no effect
main.cpp:72: warning: statement has no effect
main.cpp:77: warning: statement has no effect
main.cpp:82: warning: statement has no effect
main.cpp:86: warning: left-hand operand of comma has no effect
main.cpp:86: warning: right-hand operand of comma has no effect

If not, you may want to up the warning level in your compiler.

Here you do a comparison, not an assignment to answer:

answer == ((firstNumber - 32) * 5 / 9);

An assignment would be:

answer = ((firstNumber - 32) * 5 / 9);

And here

if (!c,f,k)

The comma usage probably is not what you mean to write.

[edit]And for the newlines left over after your character input, see this.

[wtf???]

thanks for the help i just started c++ like a few days ago but what do you mean by newlines
