  Program Logic This program converts the Celsius temperature entered by the user to Fahrenheit and displays the result with two decimal places. It then asks the user if they want to convert another temperature or quit. If the user chooses to convert another temperature, the loop continues, and if they choose to quit, the program exits. C Source Code # include <stdio.h> int main () { float celsius, fahrenheit; char choice; do { printf ( "\nEnter temperature in Celsius: " ); scanf ( "%f" , &celsius); fahrenheit = (celsius * 1.8 ) + 32 ; printf ( "%.2f Celsius = %.2f Fahrenheit\n" , celsius, fahrenheit); printf ( "\nDo you want to convert another temperature (y/n)? " ); scanf ( " %c" , &choice); } while (choice == 'y' || choice == 'Y' ); return 0 ; }   C Source Code Explained The program first includes the stdio.h header file which conta...

Designed for Microcontrollers MicroPython and CircuitPython are two popular programming languages designed specifically for microcontrollers. They are both based on Python, making them easy to learn and use for anyone familiar with the language. However, there are some differences between the two that are worth considering when choosing which one to use. MicroPython An Implementation of Python 3 MicroPython is a lean and efficient implementation of the Python 3 programming language. It was created by Damien George in 2013, and it is designed to run on microcontrollers with limited resources such as RAM and flash memory. MicroPython is open-source and free to use, making it an ideal choice for hobbyists and professionals alike. Small Footprint One of the main advantages of MicroPython is its small footprint. It is designed to run on microcontrollers with as little as 256KB of flash memory and 16KB of RAM. This means that it can be used on a wide range of microcontrollers, including thos...

GPT-4 Just Announced OpenAI has announced the release of the next generation of its large language model, GPT-4. The artificial intelligence technology that underpins the popular ChatGPT chatbot tool now includes features such as image processing, game creation, and code generation for all major programming languages. GPT-4 has already been used to create functioning websites from drawings, generate code for iconic games like Pong, Tetris and Snake, and pass simulated law school bar exams with scores in the top 10% of test takers. However, the tool does have some limitations, including simple reasoning errors and a lack of knowledge of events that occurred before September 2021. OpenAI has warned users to exercise caution when using GPT-4 in high-stakes contexts. Ability to Work With Photos One of the most significant changes to GPT-4 is its ability to work with photos that users upload. The company's video demo showed how a drawing could be turned into a functional website within ...

  Visual ChatGPT Microsoft has introduced Visual ChatGPT, an upgraded version of the chatbot that can produce images from text and process image prompts uploaded by users. While OpenAI's DALL-E-2 system has already experimented with AI image generation, Visual ChatGPT represents a step toward multimodal AI, which Microsoft revealed it was aiming for with the upcoming GPT-4 upgrade coming to Bing with ChatGPT. This means that image processing could soon be joined by AI-powered video and sound tools. AI Art Generator Visual ChatGPT is built on Open AI's GPT Large Language Model (LLM) and Microsoft's Prometheus model. The majority of AI art generators use a Visual Foundation Model (VFM) like Stable Diffusion to create images. To create Visual ChatGPT, Microsoft bolted several VFMs onto the flexible GPT model through the creation of a "Prompt Manager." This enabled ChatGPT to leverage the VFMs and receive their feedback iteratively until it met the requirements of use...
