No need for the 'print' here, options() already prints. The extra
print will print the return value of options(), which is None.

I too am a Beginner at python, and i have been playing around with it for
about a week. While playing around, i decided to make a calculator program
(A Very simple one) to calculate area and also to convert farenheit to
celcius and vice versa. So, here is the code:
def options():
print "Optio

This idiom has a pitfall. Consider
A and B or C
If B can evaluate to a false value, such as None or 0, the expression
will not do what

I have managed to get a good temperature converter program working! I am
working on beefing it up a bit with some exception handling and an "and-or
trick". The error handling works okay but I am having problems using and-or.
Here's my updated code:

Sorry! I copied the sample output from my command prompt incorrectly.
Correct sample output:
Enter A Number : 50
Convert to (F)ahrenheit or (C)elsius? C
50 Fahrenheit = 32 Celsius
*50 *(not 32) Celsius = 147 Fahrenheit

In Python, def is an executable statement. Your function is not
defined until the def statement is run by Python. If you move your
function definitions earlier in the code so that your functions are
defined before they're used, this code will run properly.

Hi all,
I'm new to Python (and programming in general) and need some help!
Here is my code so far for a temperature conversion program (converts
between Fahrenheit and Celsius):
temp = input("Enter A Number : ")
convertTo = raw_input("Convert To (F)ahrenheit or (C)elsius? : ")
if convertTo ==
