Record and Plot Real time Data in Python

The video tutorial covers the setup and execution of a Python project for a chemical engineering course. It guides students through the process of coding a program that inputs temperature data, converts it to Kelvin, and plots the results. The tutorial emphasizes input validation, data storage, and statistical analysis. It also demonstrates how to export plots for reports. The project serves as a warm-up for a larger heat exchanger design problem.

What is the significance of converting temperatures to Kelvin?

Describe how the program plots temperature values against time.

What statistics are calculated at the end of the program?

How can the generated plot be exported for use in documents?
