Question

Answer the given question with a proper explanation and step-by-step solution.

Below is your function add(t) from 6.4 which adds all items in the tuple t and returns the result. This function is unprotected and will fail whenever the tuple t contains an item that is not a number. Run the program to see it. Protect your function with the try-except statement! If for whatever reason the addition fails, display the error message and return None. Do not change the main program.

Expected output:

Tuple of values: (1, 'two', 3)
unsupported operand type(s) for +=: 'int' and 'str'
Sum of the values: None

def add(t):
"""Adds all values in the tuple t"""

result = 0

for x in t:
result += x

return result

# Main program (do not change):
values = (1, 'two', 3)
print("Tuple of values:", values)
print("Sum of the values:", add(values))
