PLEASE USE PYTHON This exercise is designed to give you experience looping over files and making decisions based on their contents.
The program asks the user for three pieces of information.
A text file to open
A letter to search for
A position to look in
The program counts how many words have the given character in the correct position. For example, the previous sentence contains 5 words with 'o' in position 1.
Your program must check for errors. If an error is encountered, call sys.exit(0) after printing a message.
If the file cannot be opened, then print an error. (Hint: Use a try/except with OSError)
