Hi Sebastian, Very much thanks for your help.
Your explanation and illustrations is clear. I was not aware of that syntax. I now understand and the issue is resolved. Thanks again. Cheers. -----Original Message----- From: Sebastian Silva [mailto:sebast...@fuentelibre.org] Sent: Thursday, June 15, 2017 1:53 AM To: William Gan <ganwill...@outlook.com>; tutor@python.org Subject: Re: [Tutor] Fahrenheit to Celsius Conversion another problem and Programming Paradigm Hi William, Glad to see the tutor list is being of help in your learning.

Thus, the combined condition is always true because the second expression is always True. The correct condition would be: if unit=='C' or unit=='c': Or perhaps more clear, also correct: if unit in ('C', 'c'): Or shorter: if unit in 'Cc': Hope it's useful, Regards, Sebastian _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
