Oops, this should be:
sprintf(string1,"Temperature: %d F", Temperature);

so if Temperature is 330, it will make string1 = "Temperature: 330 F"

And while I'm at it, I'll expand a bit on the below:-

>I'd probably do the whole thing in one line like this:
>printf("%02d:%02d %s\n", Hours, Minutes, am_pm_flag ? "AM" : "PM");

And this would be more aesthetically pleasing, perhaps, as:

printf("%2d:%02d %s\n", Hours, Minutes, am_pm_flag ? "AM" : "PM");

With Hours == 2, Minutes == 3, am_pm_flag == 0, it will output:

" 2:03 PM"   (without the quotes, of course)

To do a blinky cursor (assuming you are updating whatever it is
often enough)

/* print the time with blinking cursor */
printf("%2d%c%02d %s\n", Hours, cursor_on ? ':' : ' ', Minutes, am_pm_flag
? "AM" : "PM");

Note: printf does NOT automatically append a newline, so you can easily
break this up
into pieces if it makes the program simpler.

Best regards,
