This tutorial is due on March 9, 2021 via cuLearn

Setup

Install Android Studio 4.1.

Tasks

For each task, explain what you did to accomplish the task or explain your attempts at an answer. Be sure to include references (links) to any resources that you used for each question, as well as the names of any collaborators.

Be sure to use this template when submitting answers on cuLearn. When a question asks for code, explain the changes you made and include relevant code snippets.

  1. Change the format of the output Celsius to have four significant digits rather than a fixed two decimal places.
  2. Add a line below the Celsius conversion that gives the temperature in Kelvin.
  3. Make the temperatures bold only (the rest of the text should be as it was). Use fromHtml and the HTML bold tag b, e.g., "<b>32</b>". Use 0 for options.
  4. Add a miles to kilometers converter to the same screen. It should be below the existing Fahrenheit converter. The input for miles and Fahrenheit should be separate.
  5. What are the keywords used in the MainActivity class? What are the explicit types? What are the implicit types? There are lots, so don't worry if you can't get them all. However, try to identify as many of them as you can.
  6. Out of the ones you identify, which keywords and types seem mysterious?
