EXAMPLE

Sample program runs:

   %degrees -C -40 0 37 100
    Celsius      Fahrenheit
     -40.00C      -40.00F
       0.00C       32.00F
      37.00C       98.60F
     100.00C      212.00F

%degrees -F -459.67 32 98.60 212 Fahrenheit Celsius -459.67F -273.15C 32.00F 0.00C 98.60F 37.00C 212.00F 100.00C
