serious help on a program

[aly]

on monday i have a program due that converts dollars to deutsche marks and francs, we were given these formulas
$1.00=5.05 Fr
$1.00=1.47 DM
1.00= 3.4354 Fr

The problem is that i am really just learing c++ am entirely confused..unsure even where to begin...if anyone could possibly lend some advice to me i would be very very grateful..again this is due monday thanks so much...

Please have a look at my code for help, and then attempt it yourself. Otherwise he might be suspicious of cheating and/or you'll never learn C. I'd normally flame, but I'm in a good mood [tired].

#include <stdio.h>
#define FRANKS 5.05 
/* this means anytime you type FRANKS, it is replaced with 5.05 */
#define DM 1.47 
/* same here except with DM */

int main(void) 
{
  float input;
  int choice;
  printf("Enter amount in dollars $"); 
  scanf("%f",&input); 
/* get the floating point (%f) input, this is a number with a 
decimal point (although it doesnt need one) */
  printf("Convert to (1)Franks or (2)Deutsche Marks? >");
  scanf("%d",&choice); 
/* get a decimal integer (%d) input, no decimal point */
  if(choice == 1)
   printf("$%.2f = %.2fF",input,input*FRANKS); 
/* * is the symbol for multiplication */
  else if(choice == 2)
   printf("$%.2f = %.2fDM",input,input*DM);
  else
   printf("Invalid choice.");
  return 0;
}
