* Normal human body temperature is 36.8 C 0.7 C, or 98.2 F 1.3 F. The commonly given value 98.6 F is simply the exact conversion of the nineteenthcentury German standard of 37 C. Since it does not list an acceptable range, it could therefore be said to have excess (invalid) precision. [5]
Some numbers in this table have been rounded.

Notes and references


1. The Coldest Inhabited Places on Earth (http://ecolocalizer.com/2008/12
/14/the-coldest-inhabited-places-on-earth/); researches of the Vostok
Station recorded the coldest known temperature on Earth on July 21st
1983: 89.2 C (128.6 F).
2. World: Highest Temperature (http://wmo.asu.edu/world-highesttemperature); an Italian weather station in al 'Aziziyah (Libya) measured
a temperature of 58 C (136.4 F) on September 13th 1922. "Although
this record has gained general acceptance as the world's highest
temperature recorded under standard conditions, the validity of the
extreme has been questioned."
