Create a Custom Exception Handler

Introduction

In this challenge, you will develop a robust exception handling system for temperature sensors in scientific research. The goal is to create a custom TemperatureException class that inherits from std::runtime_error and implement a temperature validation function that throws the custom exception for invalid temperature readings.

Create a Temperature Exception Handler

In scientific research, accurate temperature monitoring is crucial. Your task is to develop a robust exception handling system for temperature sensors that can detect and report invalid readings.

Tasks

Complete the following TODOs in the template code:

Implement the TemperatureException constructor:
- Initialize base class with error message
- Set the invalid temperature value
Implement the validateTemperature function:
- Check if temperature is within [-50°C, 100°C]
- Throw TemperatureException for invalid values

Requirements

Temperature range: -50°C to 100°C
Error message: "Temperature Error: Invalid temperature reading"
Must use provided class structure
Do not modify main() function

Examples

COmpile and run the code to test the temperature validation function. The program should throw a TemperatureException for invalid temperature readings.

g++ temperature_exception.cpp -o temperature_exception
./temperature_exception

Valid temperature:

Testing valid temperature:
Temperature 25.0°C is valid.

Invalid temperature:

Temperature Error: Invalid temperature reading
Invalid Temperature: 150°C

Hints

Use the constructor of std::runtime_error to set the error message
Store the invalid temperature as a private member of the exception class
Create a getter method to retrieve the invalid temperature value

Summary

In summary, this challenge requires you to create a custom TemperatureException class that inherits from std::runtime_error and implement a temperature validation function that throws the custom exception for invalid temperature readings. The goal is to develop a robust exception handling system for temperature sensors in scientific research.
