order of operations in python

hey guys just trying to figure out what i have wrong here... here's a simple conversion in python (fahrenheit to celsius)

c = 5 / 9 * float (f - 32)

i'm not sure why this will not convert properly but i'm guessing it has to do with the way python does order of operations

this is what i'm coming up with

so when you put in float (f - 32), is basically what's going on is python is not treating f - 32 as a "parentheses" in order of operations and doing the division before anything else.....also if i remember correctly PEMDAS has "Multiplication" clearly ahead of "Division" so why does Python do the division before anything else?

you forgot some parenthesis


(define (celsius fahrenheit)
      (*  (- fahrenheit 32)
          (/ 5. 9)))
(define f 420)
(celsius f)
215.56

thanks for that link

so basically in something like...

f = 90
c = 5 / 9 * float (f - 32)

so here does the float () function negate the use of (f - 32) as parentheses in order of operations?

What is integer division?

90 degrees fahrenheit is 0 degrees celsius. Case closed.

You're all wrong c = ℓ_P⋅t_P.

OP is stupid fukin goyim. No wonders jews are the EXPERT PROGRAMMERS

10/18 *  float(f-32)

If by god you mean the imaginary half naked old man that lives in the head of all American Christians then yes.
