Question 59

A smart-thermostat system uses the Python code snippet below to monitor room temperature:

temp = float(input("Enter temperature: "))
if temp < 18.0:
    print("Heating On")
else:
    print("Heating Off")

The program needs to be modified so that it repeats exactly five times using definite (count-controlled) iteration.

Select the option that does this correctly.

A
count = 0
while count < 5:
    temp = float(input("Enter temperature: "))
    if temp < 18.0:
        print("Heating On")
    else:
        print("Heating Off")
    count = count + 1
B
for count in range(1, 5):
    temp = float(input("Enter temperature: "))
    if temp < 18.0:
        print("Heating On")
    else:
        print("Heating Off")
C
for count in range(5):
    temp = float(input("Enter temperature: "))
    if temp < 18.0:
        print("Heating On")
    else:
        print("Heating Off")
D
count = 5
while count > 0:
    temp = float(input("Enter temperature: "))
    if temp < 18.0:
        print("Heating On")
    else:
        print("Heating Off")
    count = count - 1
