In those, the pendulum has a mechanism which allows the hands to move forward by one gear every time it swings back and forth (google "escapement gear" if you want to know what this looks like). Hence, the 'tick' sound is when the pendulum swings one way and the 'tock' is when it swings back.

Define and use in your program the following functions to make your code more modular: convert_str_to_numeric_list - takes an in
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

In Python:

def convert_str_to_numeric_list(teststr):

   nums = []

   res = teststr.split()

   for x in res:

       if x.isdecimal():

           nums.append(int(x))

       else:

           nums = []

           break;

   return nums

def get_avg(mylist):

   if not len(mylist) == 0:

       total = 0

       for i in mylist:

           total+=i

       ave = total/len(mylist)

   else:

       ave = "None"

   return ave

def get_min(mylist):

   if not len(mylist) == 0:

       minm = min(mylist)

   else:

       minm = "None"

   return minm

def get_max(mylist):

   if not len(mylist) == 0:

       maxm = max(mylist)

   else:

       maxm = "None"

   return maxm

mystr = input("Enter a string: ")

mylist = convert_str_to_numeric_list(mystr)

print("List: "+str(mylist))

print("Average: "+str(get_avg(mylist)))

print("Minimum: "+str(get_min(mylist)))

print("Maximum: "+str(get_max(mylist)))

Write a Python program that can convert a Fahrenheit temperature to Celsius, or vice versa. The program should use two custom fu
Klio2033 [76]

A Python program that can convert a Fahrenheit temperature to Celsius, or vice versa. The program should use two custom functions, f_to_c and c_to_f, to perform the conversions.

Explanation:

  • Functions should be defined in a custom module named temps. Custom function c_to_f should be a void function defined to take a Celsius temperature as a parameter.
  • It should calculate and print the equivalent Fahrenheit temperature accurate to three decimal places.
  • Custom function f_to_c should be a value-returning function defined to take a Fahrenheit temperature as a parameter.
  • This function should calculate the equivalent Celsius temperature and return it.

The code is given below :

def c_to_f(tempCelsius):

  tempFahrenheit = ((9/5)*tempCelsius) + 32;

  print("\n %.3f Celsius is %.3f Fahrenheit \n" %(tempCelsius, tempFahrenheit));

def f_to_c(tempFahrenheit):

  tempCelsius = (tempFahrenheit - 32) * (5/9);

  return tempCelsius;

(Import modules)

import temps;  

def main():

  temperature = float(input("\n Enter a temperature: "));

  scale = input("\n Was that input Fahrenheit or Celsius c/f? ");

  if scale.lower() == 'c':

      temps.c_to_f(temperature);

  else:

 tempCel = temps.f_to_c(temperature);

      print("\n %.1f Fahrenheit equals %.3f Celsius \n" %(temperature, tempCel));

main();
