A function should convert a Fahrenheit temperature (F) to a Celsius temperature (C). What should be the output from the function?

Rationale

The output from the function should be Celsius only (C).

The function's purpose is to convert a given Fahrenheit temperature into its corresponding Celsius value. Therefore, the expected output must be solely the Celsius temperature, without including any other values.

A (F and 32) YOUR ANSWER

This choice suggests that the function should output the Fahrenheit temperature (F) alongside the constant 32. However, the task is to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, not to present Fahrenheit or a fixed number. Including 32 does not fulfill the requirement for conversion.

B (C only) CORRECT

This is the correct choice, as the function is designed to output only the Celsius temperature (C) derived from the input Fahrenheit temperature (F). This output aligns perfectly with the function's objective, which is to provide the converted temperature.

C (F only) YOUR ANSWER

This option indicates that the function would output only the original Fahrenheit temperature (F). This does not meet the function's goal of converting Fahrenheit to Celsius, as it fails to provide the Celsius equivalent.

D (F and C) YOUR ANSWER

While this choice includes both Fahrenheit (F) and Celsius (C), it is unnecessary for the function's output. The task requires the function to focus on the conversion result, which is the Celsius value alone, making this option irrelevant.

Conclusion

The function's primary task is to convert Fahrenheit temperatures to Celsius, necessitating that it outputs only the Celsius temperature (C). All other options either provide unnecessary information or fail to deliver the required conversion result, reinforcing the importance of clear and focused outputs in programming functions.

A function should convert a Fahrenheit temperature (F) to a Celsius temperature (C). What should be the output from the function?

The output from the function should be Celsius only (C).
