Question
![Write a Python function that will perform unit conversions. Your function should take two arguments.
The first argument is a float that is the temperature in Celsius and the second argument is a string that
take on one of four values; "Fahrenheit", "Celsius", "Rankine", "Kelvin". Your function should be named
temp_convert and return a float of the converted temperature. An example of using the function is
shown below:
new_temp temp_convert(e,"Fahrenheit")
This will result in a value of 32.0 being assigned to the variable new_temp. Save your file as a pdf titled

- In Python Write a function so that the main program below can be replaced by the simpler code that calls function mph_and_minutes_to_miles(). Original main program: miles_per_hour = float(input()) minutes_traveled = float(input()) hours_traveled = minutes_traveled / 60.0 miles_traveled = hours_traveled * miles_per_hour print('Miles: {:f}'.format(miles_traveled)) Sample output with inputs: 70.0 100.0 Miles: 116.666667 ''' Your solution goes here ''' miles_per_hour = float(input())minutes_traveled = float(input()) print('Miles: {:f}'.format(mph_and_minutes_to_miles(miles_per_hour, minutes_traveled)))arrow_forwardWrite in Python Write a function named max that accepts two float values as arguments and returns the value that is the greater of the two. For example, if 7.2 and 12.1 are passed as arguments to the function, the function should return 12.1. Use the function in a program that prompts the user to enter two float values. The program should display the value that is the greater of the two.arrow_forwardWrite a C++ program that will input temperatures for consecutive days. The program will store these values into an array and call a function that will return the average of the temperatures. It will also call a function that will return the highest temperature and a function that will return the lowest temperature. The user will input the number of temperatures to be read. There will be no more than 25 temperatures. For Full Credit You must have a comment block header at the top of your program. See the Standards document in Course Content You must use a constant to represent the maximum number of temperature readings You must use the correct data types for your constants and variables You must use an array of the correct data type You must validate your input. Check for number of invalid number of readings (> max, < 1, etc) and display appropriate error message. You must use one or more if/else branches for your decisions You must use a loop to read in the temperatures…arrow_forward
