If we ignore the raw_input bit you have done what you were asked.

Although as a stylistic point it is better to return values from
functions rather than print the values inside the functions.
You can then print the result of the function like this:

print C_F(x)

I suspect the assignment expects you to provide some code
that uses them, to show they work. Given the raw_input hint I'd
surmise they want you to ask the user for a temperature in C or F
and use your functions to print the corresponding temperature
in the other scale.

You will need to convert the raw_input value to an integer for
the functions to work. Can you do that?
