Definition of Temperature:
Temperature is a measurement between hot and cold states by a thermometer. Various scales or units are used to measure temperature, the most common being Celsius (denoted °C; formerly called centigrade), Fahrenheit (denoted °F), and Kelvin (denoted K; especially in science).
Abbreviations of Temperature Units:
Unit of measurement: Abbreviation(s)
- Celsius: C, or °C, or deg C
- Fahrenheit: F, or °F, or deg F
- Rankine: R, or °R, or deg R
- Kelvin: K, or °K, or deg K
