Chapter 6, Problem 9AW
Program Plan Intro
The following algorithm is used to display the exception that occurs in the code:
- • Initially, declare the “try” suite.
- • Declare the “float” function and pass the argument “abc123” into the function; then, initialize it to the variable “x”.
- ○ If exception does not occur in the “try” suite, then it displays that print statement.
- • Declare an exception named “IOError” to handle the non-existing files that may occur in the “try” suite.
- ○ Display a specified “IOError” except clause statement on the screen when “IOError” occurs in the “try” suite.
- • Declare an exception named “ValueError” to handle the non-numeric data passed as an argument in the “float” function that may occur in the “try” suite.
- ○ Display a specified “ValueError” except clause statement on the screen when “ValueError” occurs in the “try” suite.
- • Display the “end” statement after exception handled in a code.

X609: Magic Date
A magic date is one when written in the following format, the month times the date equals the year e.g. 6/10/60. Write code that
figures out if a user entered date is a magic date. The dates must be between 1 - 31, inclusive and the months between 1 - 12,
inclusive. Let the user know whether they entered a magic date. If the input parameters are not valid, return false.
Examples:
magicDate(6, 10, 60) -> true
magicDate(50, 12, 600) –> false

In our earliest labs, we asked you to print a diamond pattern to the screen using predefined print statements. Now that we know how to use loops, we can make more dynamic and customizable patterns. For this assignment, we will prompt the user to enter a maximum width for the diamond. If they enter a number less than 3, we'll prompt them to choose a correct width. If they enter an even number (greater than 3), we will add 1 to it and let the user know the final diamond size. Then we will generate and print out the diamond using * and '' symbols. Hints: Each line of the "diamond" is made up of two parts – the asterisks in the center and the spaces to the left of it. The amount of "left space" decreases as we go towards the middle diamond, then increases afterwards as we go towards the bottom. Could we use multiple loops (or even nested loops) to model this behavior? Also, note that the number of asterisks increases (and later decreases) by two on each…arrow_forward3.
