Python Convert Celsius to Fahrenheit Program

This program helps you to learn the fundamental structure and syntax of Python programming.

Try This Code
# Program to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit

celsius = float(input("Enter temperature in Celsius: "))

fahrenheit = (celsius * 9/5) + 32

print(celsius, "°C is equal to", fahrenheit, "°F")
Output
Enter temperature in Celsius: 25
25.0 °C is equal to 77.0 °F

Step-by-Step Breakdown

  1. 1Read the temperature in Celsius from the user.
  2. 2Apply the formula (celsius * 9/5) + 32.
  3. 3Store the result in a fahrenheit variable.
  4. 4Print both Celsius and Fahrenheit values.

Understanding Convert Celsius to Fahrenheit

We use the classic temperature conversion formula:

F = (C × 9/5) + 32

This example reinforces operator precedence and working with fractions in Python expressions.
