Learning python, I'm trying to make a fahrenheit conversion using a defined function

celsius = input("Please enter degrees in celcius: ")
fahrenheit = 0

def f_conversion(celsius):
    ((celsius * 1.8) + 32 == fahrenheit)



print("Your temp in fahrenheit is: " + str(fahrenheit))

Any clues on to why this isnt working out?

>Solution :

First, there is no need to initialize variables in python. So setting fahrenheit to zero right away is unnecessary.

Second, in the function itself, you are making an equality call. == checks for equality while = sets variable values. Moreover, you are doing so backwards, fahrenheit would be on the left and assigned with = the result of the conversion.

Your script might instead look something like this:

celsius = float(input("Please enter degrees in celcius: "))

def conversion(celsius):
    return ((celsius * 9/5) +32)

result = conversion(celsius)

print (f"Your temp in fahrenheit is {result}")
