✅ The expected output of the script down below is this:
Fahrenheit Temperatures: [32.0, 50.0, 68.0, 86.0, 104.0]
❌ However, the script is producing this output instead. Where is the problem and what is the solution?
Fahrenheit Temperatures: [0.0, 338.0, 676.0, 1013.9999999999999, 1352.0]
Script:
celsius_temperatures = [0, 10, 20, 30, 40]
fahrenheit_temperatures = []
for celsius in celsius_temperatures:
# Intentional error: Incorrect order of operations in conversion
fahrenheit = celsius * (9 / 5 + 32)
fahrenheit_temperatures.append(fahrenheit)
print("Fahrenheit Temperatures:", fahrenheit_temperatures)
Calculation includes the 32 within the parentheses, when it shouldn’t. Calculation should be: fahrenheit = celsius * (9 / 5) + 32
misplaced parenthesis fahrenheit = celsius * (9 / 5 + 32) -> fahrenheit = celsius * (9 / 5) + 32
alternatively removing the parentheses will work fahrenheit = celsius * 9 / 5 + 32
