 // This class converts temperature between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
 // It may be used by assigning a value to either Celsius or Fahrenheit 
 // and then retrieving the other value, or by calling the ToCelsius or
 // ToFahrenheit methods directly.

Output

temp1.celsius = 100
temp1.fahrenheit = 212

temp2.fahrenheit = 100
temp2.celsius = 37.7778
