Question

def DMStoDD(degree, minutes, seconds):

dd = abs(degree) + abs(minutes)/60 + abs(seconds)/3600

if degree > 0:

return dd

else:

return -dd

print(DMStoDD(-30, 30, 00))

In the script abovr, add a function that converts from DD to DMS. Directions:

It should take one DD value and return a tuple containing 3 numbers representing D, M and S.

If DD is negative, the returned degree value should also be negative. The other two fields should be positive.

Answer 1

def DMStoDD(degree, minutes, seconds):
    dd = abs(degree) + abs(minutes)/60 + abs(seconds)/3600

    if degree > 0:
        return dd
    else:
        return -dd


def DDtoDMS(dd):
    degree = int(abs(dd))
    minutes = int((abs(dd) - degree) * 60)
    seconds = int((((abs(dd) - degree) * 60) - minutes) * 60)
    if dd > 0:
        return tuple((degree, minutes, seconds))
    else:
        return tuple((-degree, minutes, seconds))


print(DMStoDD(-30, 30, 00))
