Part C
Demonstrate the exception handling with the difference between the
1. CO3 K5
else block and finally block with an example program.
Write a function called sed that takes as arguments a pattern string, a
replacement string, and two filenames; it should read the first file
and write the contents into the second file (creating it if necessary). If

with the replacement string. If an error occurs while opening,
reading, writing or closing files, your program should catch the
exception, print an error message, and exit.
