From USD

Lesson 4 of 5 in Coddy's Currency Converter - Python Project course.

Now let's create the other helper function - from_usd.

Challenge

Medium

Create another function named from_usd that gets currency to convert to and amount of USD.

The function will return its equivalent value in the currency from the input, round the result to 4 floating digits..

Handle the same errors from to_usd.

Don't delete to_usd function, we will need it for later!

Try it yourself

CURRENCIES = {
    'USD': 1,
    'EUR': 1.06,
    'YEN': 0.0067,
    'GBP': 1.23,
    'AUD': 0.64,
    'CAD': 0.74
}


def to_usd(from_currency, amount):
    if from_currency not in CURRENCIES:
        raise Exception(f'{from_currency} is not supported')
    elif amount < 0:
        raise Exception(f'Invalid amount')
    else:
        res = CURRENCIES[from_currency] * amount
        return res
