Celsius
Celsius is a unit of temperature measurement named after the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius. It is widely used in the scientific and everyday world as a standard for measuring temperature. The Celsius scale is based on the freezing and boiling points of water, which are defined as 0 degrees Celsius and 100 degrees Celsius, respectively, at standard atmospheric pressure.
Converting Between Celsius and Fahrenheit
To convert a temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit, you can use the following formula:
Fahrenheit = (Celsius × 9/5) + 32
Conversely, to convert a temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the following formula:
Celsius = (Fahrenheit - 32) × 5/9
