bookChallenge: Debugging a Broken Program

Task

Swipe to start coding

You are given a program that attempts to read the contents of a file and print them to the console. However, if the file does not exist, the program throws an exception and crashes. Your task is to fix the program so that it handles the missing file gracefully and no longer crashes when the file is absent.

  • Return "File does not exist." if the file at the given path is missing.
  • Otherwise, return the contents of the file.
