this program works but i need to put in a loop that the user 10 times to input a value and you load it ino an array

Replace that function with following:

void ctof(void)
{

clrscr();

/*Basicly i starts at 1 ; while i is less than 10; increment 1 by 1 at the end of the line and start over with i now value at 2 so on..*/
for (int i = 1; i != 10; i ++){
 cout<<"Please Enter Reading #" << i << endl;
 cin>>c;
 f=c/5*9+32; //do calculation
 cout<<c<<" degress celcius = "<<f<<" degrees fahrenheit"<<endl;
 cout<<endl; //To end the line
}

But you have no arrays stored so you'd change.
c
to
c

keep as i so it starts at:

c[1] (aka c when at first pass through loop)
c[2] (aka c when at second pass through loop, since i increments at end of loop)
c[3] (aka c when at third pass through loop, itll keep going untill 10.

thanks also were do i put the 1D array were it stores the 10 temperature reading

}

Define f and c like this:

float f[11], c[11];

And in for loop change c to c and f to f.

i change it but the program when convert says it like 0*004354a0 so what did i do wrong
clrscr();


for (int i = 1; i != 11; i ++){
cout<<"Please Enter Reading #" << i << endl;
cin>>c;
f=c/5*9+32; //do calculation
cout<<c<<" degress celcius = "<<f<<" degrees fahrenheit"<<endl;
cout<<endl; //To end the line
}
getch();
}

You missed one.

cout<<c<<" degress celcius = "<<f<<" degrees fahrenheit"<<endl;

This is how it should look like.

cout<<c[i]<<" degress celcius = "<<f[i]<<" degrees fahrenheit"<<endl;

Can you explain what is controller() function supposed to do? I don't really get it :)
Are you supposed to enter values for temperatures in controller instead of ctof and ftoc or?

Controller ask user fore scale in which data will be entered gets the 10 temperatures into 1D array . calls either the ctof() or ftoc() fuction passing a temperature to be converted.prints out the result sent back from the function in a suitable format

Which compiler are you using?

Replace cstdio with #include<conio.h>

borland 5.02 so willl not let me use cstdio

hi i am getting one error saying namespace name expected this line using namespace std;

Ah.. Remove using namespace std; from 4th line.
I'm using CodeBlocks so I don't know which parts are not working in Borland..

thanks so much
