Description

As mentioned in part A, professional programmers do one of two things: maintain existing code or write new code. This assignment is especially important as you will work on versions of this assignment throughout the semester. In each subsequent lab you will create a new “version” of this lab by changing it up a little bit. As a reminder the naming convention for all labs is as follows:


firstName_LastName_labnx where you will replace firstName_LastName with your own first and last name separated with an underscore. In labnx, n represents the lab number and x will be either A or B. As an example, a hypothetical student named Joe Student would save this current lab as:


In this assignment, you will design, implement, and test a complete Python program that takes an air temperature and calculates the windchill under certain conditions. While writing any program, it is very important to follow the specs or ‘customer requirements’. Please read the following specs carefully.

As we know in Austin we have two seasons - hot summer and three days of winter - forget about what the groundhog says. The meteorologists start warning about a “cold front” if the temperature dips below 80°! Yet, we also know that the geographical location of Austin makes us vulnerable to severe weather changes. As they say in the ATX, “if you don’t like the weather, wait just a minute!” However, when that Canadian cold front sinks south, it brings with it chilled northerly winds that make it feel much colder. This is known as wind chill. Wind chill is a noun that means, “the apparent temperature felt on the exposed human body owing to the combination of temperature and wind speed” (dictionary.com).
