Don't do that. You are in for nasty surprises:
def check(unit):
... if unit in "Cc":
... return "Celsius"
... return "unknown"
...
check("c")
'Celsius'
check("C")
'Celsius'
check("F")
'unknown'
Fine so far. But now:
check("Cc")
'Celsius'
check("")
'Celsius'
In fact,
check("cC")
'unknown'
Best
Woah! I bet I've got that bug in several of my programs. Thanks!
