AnalogInput ain = new AnalogInput((Cpu.AnalogChannel)10);
ain.Scale = 3.3;
OutputPort LED;
LED = new OutputPort(cerb.Pin.PB2, true);
double temp, temperatureF;

bool last = false; while (true)
{
    last = !last;
    LED.Write(last);
    temp = (ain.Read() - 0.5) * 100;
    Debug.Print("TempC: " + temp);
    temperatureF = (temp * 9.0 / 5.0) + 32.0;
    Debug.Print("TempF: " + temperatureF);
    Thread.Sleep(1500);
}

It's that simple!
