Python Currency Converter

This document summarizes a Python project to create a currency converter. A group of 3 students created a currency converter program under the guidance of Akshara Rana from October to November 2022. The program uses the forex-python library to provide real-time exchange rates and allows users to enter an amount and currencies to convert between. The project declaration and acknowledgements are also included.

How to make a Currency Converter:
To convert one currency to another, we need to write a program to
accept user input where the user will enter the amount of money, and
then the user must choose the type of currency the user wants to check
the value of.
Then our program should just display the result by calculating the
converted amount as the output. A good currency converter
application should show the converted amount in real-time, which
will only be possible if our program is working on real-time
conversion rates.

To use real-time exchange rates, we can use the forex-python library


which is used as a free tool in Python to work with exchange rates and
currency conversion.

Features of forex-python library:


Some of the important features provided by this library are:

1. List all exchange rates


2. Bitcoin price for all currencies
3. Converting the amount into Bitcoins
4. Get historical rates for any day since 1999
5. The conversion rate for a currency (ex; USD to INR)
6. Convert the amount from one currency to another. (‘USD $ 10’
to INR)
7. Currency symbols
8. Names of currencies
It uses rates API which is a free API to work with real-time and
historical exchange rates published by the European Central Bank

How to build a currency converter:

To create a Realtime currency converter with Python., we first need


to install the forex-python library which can be easily installed by
using the pip command; pip install forex-python.
Now let’s see how to write a program to create a real-time currency
converter with Python:

Source Code:

from forex_python.converter import CurrencyRates

cr = CurrencyRates()

amount = int(input("Please enter the amount you want to convert: "))

from_currency = input("Please enter the currency code that has to be


converted: ").upper()

to_currency = input("Please enter the currency code to convert:


").upper()

print("You are converting", amount, from_currency, "to",


to_currency,".")

output = cr.convert(from_currency, to_currency, amount)

print("The converted rate is:", output)
