In this tutorial, we will learn how to program a "How to Centimeters to Feet and Inches Converter in Python". The objective is to convert centimeters into feet and inches. This tutorial will guide you step by step through the process of converting a metric unit into other units. By the end of this tutorial, you will have a solid understanding of how to implement this task effectively in Python, helping you strengthen your problem-solving skills and improve your coding abilities.

This topic is straightforward and easy to understand. Simply follow the instructions provided, and you will complete it with ease. The program will guide you step by step through the process of converting metric measurements. So, let’s dive into the coding process!

Getting Started:

First you will have to download & install the Python IDLE's, here's the link for the Integrated Development And Learning Environment for Python https://www.python.org/downloads/.

Creating Main Function

This is the main function of the application. The following code will display a simple GUI in terminal console that will display program. To do this, simply copy and paste these blocks of code into the IDLE text editor.

while True:
    print("\n============== Convert Centimeters to Feet and Inches ==============\n")
 
    cm = int(input("Enter the height in centimeters: "))
    inches = 0.394 * cm
    feet = 0.0328 * cm
 
    print("The length in inches:", round(inches, 2))
    print("The length in feet:", round(feet, 2))
 
    opt = input("\nDo you want to try again? (yes/no): ").strip().lower()
    if opt == 'no':
        print("Exiting program...")
        break
    elif opt != 'yes':
        print("Invalid choice. Exiting program...")
        break

This Python program converts a user-provided height in centimeters to both feet and inches. The user is prompted to enter a value in centimeters, which is then multiplied by the appropriate conversion factors (0.394 for inches and 0.0328 for feet). The converted values are rounded to two decimal places and displayed. After showing the result, the program asks whether the user wants to perform another conversion or exit.

Output:
