Task

Swipe to start coding

Add exception handling to prevent the script from crashing when file operations fail. Use a try/catch block in the appropriate place to handle any exceptions thrown by the readFileContents function.

  • Wrap the call to readFileContents in a try/catch block.
  • If readFileContents succeeds, assign its return value to a variable and create a message that includes the file contents.
  • If an exception is caught, create an error message that includes the exception's message.
  • Ensure the appropriate message is displayed based on whether an exception occurred.
