Question

Here is a classic “introduction to computer programming” problem:

Write a program that converts temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius and vice versa.

The program will accept a number (temperature) and a temperature unit designation (i.e., character F or C) from the user, and then convert the temperature into the other unit system. The program will echo the input as part of the final conversion output. The temperature units should be printed in full (Fahrenheit or Celsius). Your program should use real numbers—not integers—for both input and output.

Formula:

T(F) = (T(C) * 9 / 5) + 32
T(C) = (T(F) − 32 ) * 5 / 9

Sample Run:

This program converts Temperatures from Fahrenheit to Celsius and vice versa.

Please enter your temperature: 32

Please enter the units (F/C): F

A temperature of 32 degrees Fahrenheit is equivalent to 0 degrees Celsius.

Do you wish another conversion? (Y/N): Y

Please enter your temperature: 100 Please enter the units (F/C): C

A temperature of 100 degrees Celsius is equivalent to 212 degrees Fahrenheit.

Do you wish another conversion? (Y/N): N

Thank you. Goodbye.

Also for this program if the user tries to input somthing else besides the allowed parameters make sure there is a try/catch block inside the code for example if the user tries to input a string in when the program is asking for the temperature the program will tell them invaild input.
