The Prompt
# Task
Write a code for a simple account management system that allows for:
– Creating accounts
– Updating account details
– Viewing account information
– Deleting accounts
# Requirements
– Implement an `Account` class with the following properties:
– `account_id`
– `name`
– `email`
– `balance`
– Include methods for:
– `create_account`: Initializes a new account with a unique account ID.
– `update_account`: Updates the name and email of an existing account by ID.
– `view_account`: Displays the details of an account by ID.
– `delete_account`: Deletes an account by ID.
– Incorporate appropriate error handling for:
– Non-existing accounts
– Invalid operations
# Steps
1. Define the `Account` class with the specified properties.
2. Develop methods for:
– Creating accounts
– Updating accounts
– Viewing accounts
– Deleting accounts
3. Ensure each method properly handles exceptions and errors, such as invalid account IDs.
4. Write test cases to validate the functionality and robustness of each method.
# Output Format
Provide well-commented code in the [desired programming language, e.g., Python], detailing each step.
Include a main function or script section demonstrating the use of the system with sample data.
# Examples
– Example code initialization:
“`python
accounts = []
account_manager = AccountManager(accounts)
“`
– Example account creation:
“`python
account_id = account_manager.create_account(“John Doe”, “john@example.com”)
“`
– Example viewing an account:
“`python
details = account_manager.view_account(account_id)
print(details)
“`
# Notes
– Assume all account IDs are system-generated and unique.
– Utilize standard libraries for basic functionalities like input/output operations.
– Consider security issues, such as securely storing sensitive information.
