🔍 Key Features

• Support for All Major Temperature Scales: Easily convert temperatures between:

  • Celsius ↔ Fahrenheit
  • Celsius ↔ Kelvin
  • Celsius ↔ Rankine
  • Fahrenheit ↔ Kelvin
  • Rankine ↔ Celsius

• User Input Warnings: Prevents conversions that result in physically impossible temperatures (e.g., temperatures below absolute zero).

• Comprehensive Test Coverage: Includes robust test cases to ensure reliable conversions and edge case handling.

• Open-Source Project: Fully transparent and open for contributions under the MIT license.

📦 Installation

Install the pytemperatureconverter library from PyPI:

pip install pytemperatureconverter

---

🚀 Usage

Here's a quick example to demonstrate some of the conversions:

from pytemperatureconverter import (
    celsius_to_fahrenheit,
    fahrenheit_to_celsius,
    celsius_to_kelvin,
    kelvin_to_celsius
)

# Celsius to Fahrenheit
temp_c = 25
print(f"{temp_c}°C is {celsius_to_fahrenheit(temp_c)}°F")

# Fahrenheit to Celsius
temp_f = 100
print(f"{temp_f}°F is {fahrenheit_to_celsius(temp_f)}°C")

# Celsius to Kelvin
print(f"{temp_c}°C is {celsius_to_kelvin(temp_c)}K")

# Kelvin to Celsius
temp_k = 300
print(f"{temp_k}K is {kelvin_to_celsius(temp_k)}°C")

🛡️ User Warnings

• The library now includes validation mechanisms to prevent physically impossible conversions.
• Temperatures that would result in unrealistic or negative Kelvin conversions will trigger appropriate warnings.
• This ensures that only meaningful and valid conversions are processed.

---

✅ Testing

We have included comprehensive test cases to ensure:

• Accurate conversions across all supported temperature scales.
• Handling of edge cases (e.g., extreme temperatures).
• Robust input validation to catch erroneous or invalid conversions.

Run the test suite to verify the correctness of conversions:
