Python 3 : la programmation Python pour les débutants

For checking the first if condition, when I am converting celsius to other. I am taking input from user. It can be smallcase or capital. If I type "if convert_to == 'f' or 'F': Do so and so...." But the program does not run. So I am forced to convert the input from user into capital 'F' by using .upper() and it works. I dont know why it does not work when I use "if convert_to == 'f' or "F": Do so and so...."

It's because you need to write instead of:

if convert_to == 'f' or "F"
below instruction:

if convert_to == 'f' or convert_to ==  "F"

I hope it helps :)

Best regards

Do I have to repeat "convert_to" again for using the "or" operator?

You need to repeat it.

When you write:

if convert_too == 'f' or convert_too:

you are checking if the first part is true/false or the second part is true/false.

convert_too is variable and it has value. ANY VALUE in Python that is not equal to 0 is equal to True.

So you really wrote something like that:
if convert_too == 'f' or True:

Thank you Arkadiusz for the detailed explanation. I really appreciate it!

I'm glad I could help you :) In case of any other questions feel free to ask!

I finished this course. Your lessons were really helpful. Out of 73 video lessons, 70 were really great! I did not understand the last 3 video lessons on yield function. Anyway, since I have finished this course and I want to improve my python programming skills, what course should I do next?

Hi! 

I'm glad you found my course helpful :)

There are more Python courses that I created available on Skillshare.

You can watch them in order:

JSON and API management in Python
How to use Visual Studio Code in Python?
Python 3 - Object Oriented Programming

Just type the names in search engine or look at my profile :)

BTW what did you find hard to understand regarding 'yield'? :)

Best regards
