Question 1

Using map(), filter(), and reduce(), write a Python program that processes a list of temperatures in Celsius. Convert them to Fahrenheit, filter out the temperatures below freezing, and find the average of the remaining temperatures.

💡 Hint: Plant each step: convert, filter, then average!

Question 2
