Chapter 6, Problem 9TF
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.

PARTICIPATION
ACTIVITY
Arrange the following lines to make a program that determines when the number of people in a restaurant equals or exceeds 10
occupants. The program continually gets the number of people entering or leaving the restaurant. Ex: 2 means two people
entered, and -3 means three people left. After each input, the program outputs the number of people in the restaurant. Once the
number of people in the restaurant equals or exceeds 10, the program exits.
If an Input MismatchException exception occurs, the program should get and discard a single string from input. Ex: The input "2
abc 8" should result in 10 occupants. Not all lines are used in the solution.

- A WriteOnly property can be an auto-implemented property. a. True b. Falsearrow_forwardWhat kind of code is contained within a try-catch statement's try block?arrow_forwarddef test_func(a,b,c): return (a+b)/c This function is normally designed to be used with three numbers: a, b, and c. However, a careless coder may call this function with an ill combination of arguments to cause certain exceptions. Specifically, if any of a, b or c is not a valid number, then this code will produce a TypeError; and if a and b are valid numbers, and c is 0, then the code will produce a ZeroDivisionError. Your job is to enhance this function by adding proper try...except... blocks, surrounding and capturing the exceptions. When a TypeError occurs, instead of crashing, your code must print on the screen: "Code produced TypeError". And, when a ZeroDivisionError occurs, instead of crashing, your code must print on the screen: "Code produced ZeroDivisionError". In both cases, your function will not crash, will not throw an exception, and silently return None.arrow_forward

A program that will input 10 score for quizzes (0-100) .Get the lowest quiz and eliminate the lowest quiz and compute and output the average of the 9 remaining quizzes. Finally, output only the SUM, LOWEST GRADE and the AVERAGE. DYNAMIC ARRAY & EXCEPTION HANDLING: COMPUTE FOR MILES PER GALLON Make a program that will calculate and compute for the quotient of miles and gallons (mpg: miles per gallons). Your program should must ask the user to specify the size of the array (using dynamic array) for the following variable: miles ,gallons and mpg. Prompt the user to Initialize the value of miles (value for miles should be 100-250) and gallons (values should be from 5-25). Use pointer galPtr for gallons, milPtr for miles and mpgPtr for mpg.
