TemperatureConverter

A converter for temperature degrees conversions of Fahrenheit (°F), Celsius (°C), Kelvin (K) and Rankine (°R).

This project converts one temperature units like celsius to another temperature units like fahrenheit. It can convert to/from four temperature units: Fahrenheit (°F), Celsius (°C), Kelvin (K) and Rankine (°R).

Programming language: Java

GUI: JavaFx

Location of Java classes: src\main\java\com\mycompany\converttemperatureunits

Location of Test classes: src\test\java\com\mycompany\converttemperatureunits

Location of JUnit 5 libraries: lib
