Lab 07a - Simple Functions

The document outlines the creation of three Python functions for unit conversions: Celsius to Fahrenheit, Miles to Kilometers, and Hours and Minutes to Total Minutes. Each function has specific input and output requirements, along with formulas for conversion. Additionally, it includes task requirements for implementation and demonstration of usage in a main section.

TASK

Unit Conversion Functions

Create three Python functions for different unit conversions based on the below:

1. Temperature conversion (Celsius to Fahrenheit), rounded to 2 decimal places. Use the round() function to help with this.
2. Distance conversion (Miles to Kilometers), rounded to 2 decimal places. Use the round() function to help with this.
3. Time conversion (Hours and Minutes to Total Minutes)

Function Specifications:

1. celsius_to_fahrenheit(celsius)

Input: Temperature in Celsius (float)


Output: Temperature in Fahrenheit (float)
Formula: F = (C * 9/5) + 32

2. miles_to_kilometers(miles)

Input: Distance in miles (float)


Output: Distance in kilometers (float)
Formula: km = miles * 1.60934

3. time_to_minutes(hours, minutes)

Input: Time in hours (int) and minutes (int)


Output: Total time in minutes (int)
Formula: total_minutes = (hours * 60) + minutes

Task Requirements:

1. Implement the three functions as specified above.


2. Write a main section that demonstrates the usage of each function at least once.
3. Round the results of celsius_to_fahrenheit() and miles_to_kilometers() to two decimal places.
4. Use descriptive variable names and add comments to explain your code.

Example Starting Code:

def celsius_to_fahrenheit(celsius):
# Implement the function here

def miles_to_kilometers(miles):
# Implement the function here

def time_to_minutes(hours, minutes):


# Implement the function here

celsius = # get input for celsius


fahrenheit = celsius_to_fahrenheit(celsius)
print(f"{celsius}C is equal to {fahrenheit}F")

miles = # get input for miles


km = miles_to_kilometers(miles)
print(f"{miles} miles is equal to {km} kilometers")

hours = # get input for hours


minutes = # get input for minutes
total_minutes = time_to_minutes(hours, minutes)
print(f"{hours} hours and {minutes} minutes is equal to {total_minutes} minutes")
