I wrote this simple program:
---- F2C.py:
# Temperature conversion
print "This little program converts from Farenheit to Celsius,"
print "or from Celsius to Farenheit"
print "-----------------------------------------------"
# Print the menu
print "What do you want to convert?"
print "1 From Farenheit to Celsius"
print "2 From Celsius to Farenheit"
# Get the user's choice:
formula = input("-->")
print
# Calculate the result:
if formula == 1:
F = input("What is the temperature in °F?")
C = (F - 32)*5/9
print
print F,"°F is equivalent to", C, "°C"
else:
C = input("What is the temperature in °C?")
F = C*9/5 + 32
print
print C, "°C is equivalent to", F, "°F"
-----
And it works fine, except for the way it has to be run. The only way I can
make it run as a command line program is when I save it as an applet. I
like the way it looks, at this moment I don't want to be concerned about
GUI. The problem is that as soon as it gives the answer, it quits by
itself, not allowing the user to see the result. How can I make it to wait
for, let's say a return, to quit?
