Chapter 6, Problem 9PE
Program Plan Intro
Exception Handling
Program Plan:
- • Declare a function named “main()”.
- ○ Declare the variable “amount” and assign “0.0” for this variable.
- ○ Declare the variable “value” and assign “0.0” for this variable.
- ○ Declare the variable “count” and assign “0”for this variable.
- ○ Declare a “try” suite.
- ○ Open the file named “numbers.txt” that is available in disk to read the numbers in the file and store the numbers in the variable “inputfile”.
- ○ Use the “for” loop to perform the iteration.
- ■ Increment “count” variable to count the iteration of the loop.
- ■ Convert the “integer” number stored in the variable “number” to “float” number and assign it to the variable “value”.
- ■ Add all the values and assign the total to the variable “amount”.
- ○ Close the file “numbers.txt”.
- ○ Calculate the average.
- ○ Display the average of the numbers stored in the variable “average”.
- ○ If the file named “numbers.txt” is not available in the disk, then it branches to the “IOError” except clause and print the exception handling statement.
- ○ If the file “numbers.txt” holds the “string” value, then it branches to the “ValueError” except clause and print the exception handling statement.
- ○ Rather than the above two exceptions, any other exception occurs in the “try” suite; then, it branches to the last “except” clause.
- ○ Call the function “ main()”.

Then it would mean that all problems in NP can also be solved in cubic time. If a problem can be solved using Dynamic Programming, then it is not NP-complete.
