Line 71:
Write the code to get the Scrabble rack (the letters available to make words) from the command line argument passed to your script. For example if your script were called `scrabble_cheater.py`, if you ran <tt>python scrabble_cheater.py RSTLNEI</tt>, <tt>RSTLNEI</tt> would be the rack.
Handle the case where a user forgets to supply a rack; in this case, print an error message saying they need to supply some letters, and then exit the program using the <code>exit()</code> function. Make sure you are consistent about capitalization: if your scores dictionary is lowercase, the letters supplied by the user need to be converted to lowercase at some point before you compare them.
