2. Using pseudocode create a program that will take temperature

in either Fahrenheit (F) or Centigrade (C) and convert it to
the other unit of measurement. The formulas are as follows:

C = (F - 32) / 1.8
F = C × 1.8 + 32

The user will input either an “F” to indicate that the input
temperature is Fahrenheit or a “C” to indicate that the input
temperature is Centigrade. If the temperature is “F” convert
it to “C”, if “C” Convert it to “F”.

Output the results with a message that states: “ _?_ degrees

Celsius is equal to _?_ degrees Fahrenheit”. [10]
