How do I solve my first python program

Question

I am a rookie in programing, so I needs some help with my codes!

I can't run the following program correctly, I get the type error I just want to know why it doesn't work. Thank you in advance!

def main():
  celsius = input("celsius: ")
  farhrenheit = (celsius * ( 9/5 ) + 32)
  print (farhrenheit)
main()

it pomps out this:

TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'float'

So, use the code `celsius = float(input("celsius: ")` to turn it into a floating point number — Ben, Sep 12 '16 at 21:25

Add a float function.

celsius = float(input("celsius: "))
