Displaying temperature using a -40 to 185F??

[Darrel Taylor]

I understand the whole "Teaching a man to fish" thing.
But at the end of the day, the guy's gotta be able to catch a fish.

To help prevent starvation, I need to toss in a fish here. And maybe a loaf of bread to go with it.<hr>
The Slope Intercept formula for the given data points would be ...

Y = (0.2751 * X) - 68

to do this in PBP with 1 decimal place @ 10-bit resolution ...

ADCIN 1, TempF
TempF = TempF * 2751
TempF = DIV32 1000
TempF = TempF - 680
GOSUB ShowTemp

'...

' --- Display a Signed Word with 1 decimal place ---
ShowTemp:
    if TempF.15 = 1 then LCDOUT "-"
    TempF = ABS(TempF)
    LCDOUT DEC (TempF/10),".",DEC1 (TempF//10)
Return

Bon Appetite,

Hey, you're right.
I missed that 6th line in the 1st post about fractions...
My bad...
-40F to 185F... that temperature 'probe' sounds familiar... like something else I've seen before... might even have a greater range, just not documented... what is it... I can't put my finger on it...
Oh...yes...it's a...(click)....mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmsssssssssssssss
