Write a Python program to convert temperatures to and from celsius and fahrenheit.

 

Python: Centigrade and Fahrenheit Temperatures :

The centigrade scale, which is also called the Celsius scale, was developed by Swedish astronomer Andres Celsius. In the centigrade scale, water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 100 degrees. The centigrade to Fahrenheit conversion formula is:

Fahrenheit and centigrade are two temperature scales in use today. The Fahrenheit scale was developed by the German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit . In the Fahrenheit scale, water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees.

C = (5/9) * (F - 32)

where F is the Fahrenheit temperature. You can also use this Web page to convert Fahrenheit temperatures to centigrade. Just enter a Fahrenheit temperature in the text box below, then click on the Convert button.

 

Sample Solution:

Python Code:


temp = input("Input the  temperature you like to convert? (e.g., 45F, 102C etc.) : ")
degree = int(temp[:-1])
i_convention = temp[-1]

if i_convention.upper() == "C":
  result = int(round((9 * degree) / 5 + 32))
  o_convention = "Fahrenheit"
elif i_convention.upper() == "F":
  result = int(round((degree - 32) * 5 / 9))
  o_convention = "Celsius"
else:
  print("Input proper convention.")
  quit()

print("The temperature in", o_convention, "is", result, "degrees.")

Sample Output:

Input the  temperature you like to convert? (e.g., 45F, 102C etc.) : 104f                                     
The temperature in Celsius is 40 degrees.
