The code below takes the list of country, country, and searches to see if it is in the dictionary gold which shows some countries who won gold during the Olympics. However, this code currently does not work. Correctly add try/except clause in the code so that it will correctly populate the list, country_gold, with either the number of golds won or the string "Did not get gold". 1
2 gold = {"US":46, "Fiji":1, "Great Britain":27, "Cuba":5, "Thailand":2, "China":26, "France":10}
3 country = ["Fiji", "Chile", "Mexico", "France", "Norway", "US"]
4 country_gold = []
5
6 for x in country:
7 country_gold. append(gold[x])
8 country_gold. append("Did not get gold")

Modify your program by replacing

for x in country:

       country_gold.append(gold[x])

       country_gold.append("Did not get gold")

with

for x in country:

       try:

               country_gold.append(gold[x])

       except:

               country_gold.append("Did not get gold")

Explanation:

The addition of try/except clause in the program is to let the program manage error;

In this case, the program checks for a country in the list country; This is implemented using the following line

for x in country:

If the country exists, the statement in the try block is executed

try:

 country_gold.append(gold[x])  ->This appends the country name to the country_gold list

Otherwise, the statement in the except clause is executed

except:

 country_gold.append("Did not get gold")  -> This appends "Did not get gold" to the country_gold list

To confirm what you've done, you may add the following line of code at the end of the program: print(country_gold)
