Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 7, Problem 2D
Explanation of Solution
Difference between “try-except” and “if-else”:
| “try-except” | “if-else” |
| Specific errors can be dealt directly using try-except. | Specific errors cannot be dealt. |
| The errors that cannot be predicted, can be handled by “try-except”... |

What are some of the benefits associated with it? How can the user be protected from making mistakes by using the many different exception handling mechanisms that might be programmed?arrow_forwardComputer Science Help please! I need my code to use an exception handling method to check if the user entered a correct word. Here is the logic: When given two words, the child may claim that transformation of the first word into the second is possible. In this case, the program asks the child to demonstrate the correctness of the answer by typing a sequence of words starting with the first and ending with the second. Such a sequence is an acceptable proof sequence if each word is obtained from its predecessor by swapping a single pair of adjacent letters. For example, the sequence tops, tosp, tsop, stop, sotp, sopt, spot proves that the word tops can be transformed into spot. If the proof sequence is accepted, the child earns a point and play proceeds to the next round with a fresh pair of words. A proof sequence is rejected if a word cannot be obtained from its predecessor by swapping an adjacent pair of letters, or if the first word in the sequence is not the first word of the pair…arrow_forward
