Temperature Converter – Python Program
This Python program converts temperatures between Celsius and Fahrenheit. It includes two functions:
celsius_to_fahrenheit(celsius): Converts a temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit.fahrenheit_to_celsius(fahrenheit): Converts a temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius.
Python Code
# temperature_converter.py
def celsius_to_fahrenheit(celsius):
"""
Convert Celsius to Fahrenheit.
:param celsius: Temperature in Celsius
:return: Temperature in Fahrenheit
"""
return (celsius * 9/5) + 32
def fahrenheit_to_celsius(fahrenheit):
"""
Convert Fahrenheit to Celsius.
:param fahrenheit: Temperature in Fahrenheit
:return: Temperature in Celsius
"""
return (fahrenheit - 32) * 5/9
if __name__ == "__main__":
# Example usage
celsius = 25
fahrenheit = 77
print(f"{celsius}°C is equal to {celsius_to_fahrenheit(celsius)}°F")
print(f"{fahrenheit}°F is equal to {fahrenheit_to_celsius(fahrenheit)}°C")
Explanation
This program consists of the following components:
Functions
- celsius_to_fahrenheit(celsius): This function takes a temperature in Celsius as input and converts it to Fahrenheit using the formula
(celsius * 9/5) + 32. - fahrenheit_to_celsius(fahrenheit): This function takes a temperature in Fahrenheit as input and converts it to Celsius using the formula
(fahrenheit - 32) * 5/9.
Main Section
The if __name__ == "__main__" block demonstrates how to use these conversion functions. It initializes two example temperatures, one in Celsius and one in Fahrenheit, and then prints the converted values to the console.
