can you please help me figure out why this isnt working thanks
The fundamental problem is that Python is case sensitive
so Def and def are two different words.
As are Main and main and Print and print.
Also Python cares about spacing. You need to indent your
code within the function.
Def main ():
Celsius = float (input ("What is the Celsius temperature? "))
Fahrenheit = 9.0 / 5.0 * Celsius + 32
Print ("The temperature is ", Fahrenheit, " degrees Fahrenheit.")

Finally, as a matter of style, capitalized names tend to be
reserved for class definitions (you probably haven't read
about them yet!)
This should therefore become:
def main ():
celsius = float (input ("What is the Celsius temperature? "))
fahrenheit = 9.0 / 5.0 * celsius + 32
print ("The temperature is ", fahrenheit, " degrees Fahrenheit.")
main()
