Convert Temperatures Filter

Part One

Given an array of integers on the $scope of a controller, write an Angular filter that repeats through the temperatures and displays them on the view in either Celsius or Fahrenheit in the following format: 10°F or 10°C.

To do this, you'll need to include a parameter to your filter, either 'F' (indicating a conversion from Celsius to Fahrenheit) or 'C' (indicating a conversion from Fahrenheit to Celsius).

For this exercise, you should implement your filter in the view using the |, and not in the JavaScript using the $filter service. (Although that is a legitimate way to do it).

$scope.temps = [10, 15, 20, 25, 30]

HINT: Degree mark ° = option shift 8.

Part Two

Sign up for the Dark Sky Weather API @ https://developer.forecast.io/docs and get a personal developer key. Use your local longitude and latitude coordinates to get your local weather.

Display the local temperature on your page. Create a dropdown menu that lets the user choose to see the temperature in Fahrenheit, Celsius, or Kelvin. Create custom Angular filters that change the degree value and symbol/letter that is displayed.

Hint: look up select and ng-options for the drop down menu.

extra credit:

Add an input where the user can enter their ideal temperature. Create a separate filter that calculates and returns the difference between the user's ideal and the current temperate. Display that value elsewhere on the screen.
