Write a program, stored in a file named highest scoring words.py, that performs the following task. • Prompts the user to input between 3 and 10 lowercase letters (with possibly whitespace inserted any- where); if the input contains too few or too many lowercase letters or any character which is neither a lowercase letter nor whitespace, then the program outputs an error message and exits. Finds in the file dictionary.txt, assumed to be stored in the working directory, the words built from the letters input by the user (with the exclusion of any other character) with highest score, if any; the score of a word is defined as the sum of the values of the letters that make up that word, the value of each letter being defined as follows: a g m 2 b 5 С 5h 5 i 5 n 2 0 s 1 t 2 y 5 z 7 f6 4 d 4 e 1 1 j 7 k 6 3p 5 q 7 3 r 2 11 4 V 6 W 6 X 7 Outputs a specific message if there is no such word; otherwise, outputs the highest score and all words with that score, one word per line, with a different introductory message depending on whether there is a unique such word (in which case the introductory message is on the same line as the word) or at least two such words (in which case the introductory message is on a line of its own and all words are preceded with 4 spaces).
