Answer:
Follows are the modified code in c++ language:
#include<iostream>//header file
#include<string>//header file
using namespace std;
int main()//main method
{
string name,address, MSG_YES, MSG_NO;//defining string variable
int item,quantity,size=6, i=0;//defining integer variable
double price;//defining double variable
int VALID_ITEM[]={106,108,307,405,457,688};//defining integer array and assign value
double VALID_ITEM_PRICE[]={0.59,0.99,4.50,15.99,17.50,39.00};//defining double array and assign value
bool foundIt=false;//defining bool variable
MSG_YES="Item available";//use string variable to assign value
MSG_NO = "Item not found"; //use string variable to assign value
cout<<"Input name: ";//print message
cin>>name;//input value in string variable
cout<<"Input Address: ";//print message
cin>>address;//input value in string variable
cout<<"Input Item: "<<endl;//print message
cin>>item;//input value in string variable
cout<<"Input Quantity: "<<endl;//print message
cin>>quantity;//input value in string variable
while(i <size)//defining while that checks i less then size
{
if (item ==VALID_ITEM[i]) //use if block to match item in double array
{
foundIt = true;//change bool variable value
price = VALID_ITEM_PRICE[i];//hold item price value in price variable
}
i++;//increment the value of i
}
if (foundIt == true)//use if to check bool variable value equal to true
{
cout<<MSG_YES<<endl;//print value
cout<<"Quantity "<<quantity<<" at "<<"Price "<<price<<"each"<<endl;//print value
cout<<"Total"<<quantity*price;//calculate the total value
}
else//else block
cout<<MSG_NO;//print message
}
Output:

Explanation:
In the above given C++ language modified code, four-string variable " name, address, MSG_YES, and MSG_NO", four integer variable "item, quantity, size, and i", and "integer and double" array is defined, that holds values.
In the string and integer variable "name, address, and item, quantity", we input value from the user-end and use the while loop, which uses the if block to check the "item and quantity" value from the user end and print its respective value.
Answer:
There is a problem in the given code in the following statement:
Problem:
punctuation = r"[.?!,;:-']"
This produces the following error:
Error:
bad character range
Fix:
The hyphen - should be placed at the start or end of punctuation characters. Here the role of hyphen is to determine the range of characters. Another way is to escape the hyphen - using using backslash \ symbol.
So the above statement becomes:
punctuation = r"[-.?!,;:']"
You can also do this:
punctuation = r"[.?!,;:'-]"
You can also change this statement as:
punctuation = r"[.?!,;:\-']"
Explanation:
The complete program is as follows. I have added a print statement print('string1:',string1,'\nstring2:',string2) that prints the string1 and string2 followed by return string1 == string2 which either returns true or false. However you can omit this print('string1:',string1,'\nstring2:',string2) statement and the output will just display either true or false
import re #to use regular expressions
def compare_strings(string1, string2): #function compare_strings that takes two strings as argument and compares them
string1 = string1.lower().strip() # converts the string1 characters to lowercase using lower() method and removes trailing blanks
string2 = string2.lower().strip() # converts the string1 characters to lowercase using lower() method and removes trailing blanks
punctuation = r"[-.?!,;:']" #regular expression for punctuation characters
string1 = re.sub(punctuation, r"", string1) # specifies RE pattern i.e. punctuation in the 1st argument, new string r in 2nd argument, and a string to be handle i.e. string1 in the 3rd argument
string2 = re.sub(punctuation, r"", string2) # same as above statement but works on string2 as 3rd argument
print('string1:',string1,'\nstring2:',string2) #prints both the strings separated with a new line
return string1 == string2 # compares strings and returns true if they matched else false
#function calls to test the working of the above function compare_strings
print(compare_strings("Have a Great Day!","Have a great day?")) # True
print(compare_strings("It's raining again.","its raining, again")) # True
print(compare_strings("Learn to count: 1, 2, 3.","Learn to count: one, two, three.")) # False
print(compare_strings("They found some body.","They found somebody.")) # False
The screenshot of the program along with its output is attached.
