I'm stuck. I'm writing a paper where I need to state temperatures in degrees C. I
can't for figure out how to get LaTeX to generate "degree symbol"C. I've
tried \symbol{"17}C which generates the degree symbol alright but leaves a space 
between the symbol and "C". What am I doing wrong?

I'm  a new user of LaTeX so I may be missing something.

Thanks for your help.
