About Celsius

Celsius is the most commonly used temperature scale in the world. The Celsius scale (known as the centigrade in some instances) is named after the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius. It is based on the freezing and boiling points of water at standard atmospheric pressure making 0°C the freezing point and 100°C the boiling point.

The Celsius scale is normally found in weather forecasts, household temperatures and cooking in most countries with the notable exception of the United States.

About Delisle

Developed by French astronomer Joseph-Nicolas Delisle, the Delisle scale was created in the early 18th century. It is a backwards scale that has decreasing values as the temperature rises.

The freezing point of water is 150 degrees and the boiling point is 0 degrees. To convert a temperature from Delisle to Celsius, you can use the formula: Celsius = (150 - Delisle) * 2/3.

In the 18th century the Delisle scale was widely used particularly in Russia but has since been forgotten and replaced by the Celsius scale.
