Program Plan Intro
Exception:
- • An exception is an error that occurs during a
program execution. - • The program execution stops abruptly when an exception occurs in the program.
- • To handle exceptions in the Python programs, the “try/except” statements are used.

- Fill in the blanks so the following code doesn't crash if a user enters an invalid value for temperature. again = True while again: %3D try: temp = float(input("Enter temperature: ")) %3D again = ValueError: print("That is not a valid temperature.") True, print temp, except Temp, exception False, except True, if Question 23arrow_forwardPROGRAMMING LANGUAGE: C++ TASK 1. You are required to create a simulation of an elevator system. There are 7 floors in a building. A user may enter the elevator and press the button of the destined floor. The simulation should display appropriate messages while moving towards the destined floor. Task 2. Write a program that takes +,-,*, and / operators and performs the required operation. the program will continue to execute until ESC key is pressed. Also, the usage of post-test loop and switch statement is mandatory.arrow_forwardC++ Programming: Instructions The program in Example 5-6 implements the Number Guessing Game. However, in that program, the user is given as many tries as needed to guess the correct number. Rewrite the program so that the user has no more than five tries to guess the correct number. Your program should print an appropriate message, such as “You win!” or “You lose!”. Code Given: //Flag-controlled while loop. //Number guessing game. #include <iostream> #include <cstdlib> #include <ctime> using namespace std; int main() { int num; //variable to store the random number int guess; //variable to store the number guessed by the user bool isGuessed; //boolean variable to control the loop srand(time(0)); num = rand() % 100; isGuessed = false; while (!isGuessed) { cout << "Enter an integer greater" <<" than or equal to 0 and " <<"less than 100: "; cin >> guess; cout << endl; if (guess == num) { cout << "You win!

- C# (FormatExceptions) Create an app that inputs miles driven and gallons used, and calculates miles per gallon. The example should use exception handling to process the FormatExceptions that occur when converting the input strings to doubles. If invalid data is entered, display a message informing the user.arrow_forwardProgramming Language: C++arrow_forwardWhat type of exception does a program raise when it uses the float function to convert a non-numeric string to a number?arrow_forward
- You can have more than one except clause in a try/except statement. True or Falsearrow_forwarderrrewarrow_forwardSimple try-catch Program This lab is a simple program that demonstrates how try-catch works. You will notice the output when you enter incorrect input (for example, enter a string or double instead of an integer). Type up the code, execute and submit the results ONLY. Do at least 2 valid inputs and 1 invalid. NOTE: The program does not stop executing after it encounters an error! CODE: import java.util.Scanner; public class TryCatch Example Simple { public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in); int num = 0; System.out.println("Even number tester.\n"); System.out.println("Enter your name: "); String name = input.nextLine(); while (true) { try { System.out.println("Enter an integer : ");arrow_forward
- Part 2 - OddOrEven ClassWrite a program that prompts the user to enter an integer. The program should display “The input is odd" to the screen if the input is odd and displays “The input is even" to the screen if the input is even. Hint: Consider using the mod (%) operatorarrow_forwardLab Assignment 1: Vigenere Cipher Overview: You are required to implement the Vigenere Cipher using any programming language of your choice. Your program should be able to encrypt any given message written in text. Your program should allow the user to submit a message for encryption (the message must use text only). You should use the following message to demonstrate the encryption: “Party on the Quad." Your program should allow the user to input the key for performing the encryption. Please use the following key to demonstrate the encryption process: "Homecoming."arrow_forwardAfter Exception of following statements: int x, y; char ch; cin.ignore (7,'2'); cin.get(ch); cin ignore(10, '2'); cin>>y; cin ignore(15,'A'); cin>>x; Suppose the input was: 87.5 90 17 6 23 89 27 A 0.1.
