Conditional Statements in C++

For this activity, you will need to be using an Integrated Development Environment (IDE). The recommended IDE for this module is JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA for Python and JetBrains CLion for C++. You can follow instructions at the following page to set up your development environment:

Setting up your Development Environment

Task 1 - Calculating the Factorial of a Number

For this task, you need to write a script that will calculate the factorial of a number (the number must be a non-negative). The function will accept the number as an argument and return the factorial.

If you are struggling with this task, you may want to read up on factorial numbers.

Task 2 - Converting Temperature Units

For this task, you need to write a function to convert temperatures to and from Celsius and Fahrenheit. You will want to consider that the input will be either 45F or 12C etc. The function will be called temperature_conversion.
