Question

Can someone please write the following program in Python please!

1) Define a function "converT()" that can take a file name, reads line by line to convert temperatures, and returns line by line. Each line in a file begins with a temperature in number {integer or floating point}, followed by one of the temperature unit {"F", "f", "C", "c"}. If "F" or "f", convert the temperature to Celsius. If "C" or "c", convert the temperature to Fahrenheit. The format of returning value is a converted temperature followed by the converted temperature unit.

For example, if a line is

45 F

Then, the function returns

7.22 C

Answer 1

Below is a screen-shot with comments on every line explaining the code:

Below is the screenshot of the input file (temp.txt ):

Below is the returned output:

Below is the code to copy:

#CODE STARTS HERE----------------------------

def converT(filename): #function converT
   f = open(filename, "r") #opening the file to read
   s="" #this is used to store converted values
   for x in (f): #reading line by line
      values=x.split(" ") #spliting number and units
      if values[1].strip().lower() == 'f': #checking for farenheit
         c = (float(values[0]) - 32) * 5.0 / 9.0 #converting to celsius
         s= s+ str(round(c,2))+" C\n" #appending converted values LINE BY LINE

      elif values[1].strip().lower()=="c": #checking for celsius
         f = 9.0 / 5.0 * float(values[0]) + 32 #converting to farenheit
         s= s+ str(round(f,2))+" F\n" #appending converted values LINE BY LINE
      else:
         s = s + "Invalid input\n" #in case of wrong input
   return(s) #returning the converted values

f=input("Enter the file name : ") #taking user input
converted=converT(f) #calling function
print(converted) #printing result for verification only.
