The Celsius scale, also known as the centigrade scale, is a temperature scale used in the metric system. It was developed by Anders Celsius in 1742. The Celsius scale is based on 0°C for the freezing point of water and 100°C for the boiling point of water at 1 atm pressure. This makes it easy to use for scientific and everyday purposes.
To convert a temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit, you can use the formula:
Fahrenheit = (Celsius × 9/5) + 32
