python isalpha command
Lesson Outline
We added error checking to our computer program. The .isalpha() method in Python is a string method that checks whether all characters in a string are alphabetic (i.e., letters from A–Z or a–z). It returns True if all characters are letters and the string is not empty; otherwise, it returns false.
