Question

Consider the following Python code:

def valid_input(user_in):
  num = int(user_in)
  return num % 10 == 0:


def main():
  PROMPT = "Enter an integer that is divisible by 10: "
  num = input(PROMPT)
  while not valid_input(num):
     num = input(PROMPT)
  print("Done")

This code works as expected if the user enters an integer but crashes if they enter anything else, such as a word. Your task is to rewrite the valid_input function so that it uses a try-except block to handle the case where the user enters something that cannot be converted to an integer. Your version of valid_input should return True if user_in is an integer that is divisible by 10 and False in all other cases. The except branch should catch the specific exception that's thrown if the user enters something other than an integer.
