Write a function named is_float(s) that takes one argument that is a string. It returns True if string s represents a floating p

oint value and returns False otherwise. You are required to use try-except. The basic concept is to "try" to convert string s to a float and if it succeeds, return True, but if it fails (that is, an exception is raised), return False. Note that float() raises a ValueError exception.

return True

except ValueError:

return False

# Now you can call is_float function

print(is_float("3.45"))

print(is_float("3e4"))

print(is_float("abc"))

A hypereutectoid steel often presents hard and brittle cementite along the grain boundaries of pearlite. Which of the following
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

(d) Spheroidizing

Explanation:

Spheroidizing

 This is the heat treatment process for steel which having carbon percentage more than 0.8 %.As we know that a hard and brittle material is having carbon percentage more than 0.8 %.That is why this process is suitable for the hard materials.

In this process a hard and brittle materials convert into soft and ductile after this it improve the machine ability as well as improve the tool life.

In this process grain become spheroidal and these grains are ductile.

    //promt and read the hours from the user

    cout<<"Enter hours in standard time : ";

    cin>>SHour;

    //check the hours are valid are not

    while(SHour<0 || SHour>12)

    {

         cout<<"Invalid hours for standard time. "

    }

    else

         MHour = SHour+12;

    MMin = SMin;
