{{Template:1010ExtraLabs |Chapter_TOC=Extra Labs |Introduction=In Winnipeg , it is noted that wind can make the air temperature even much colder. Write a program that will uses "input" to read in an air temperature and a wind speed. Then use the formula below to calculate and output the windchill.
- <math>T_{wc}=13.12 + 0.6215 T_a-11.37 V^{0.16} + 0.3965 T_a V^{0.16}\,\!</math>
