What do the browser error codes mean?

Status codes are issued by a server in response to a client’s request made to the server. Typically when your browser requests a web page the host server will give the browser an informational response, a success report, a redirection request or an error.

HTTP error codes

⭐⭐⭐

Make

Write a program that outputs what each of these HTTP status codes mean: 400, 401/403, 404. Any other code is an unknown error for the purpose of this program.

Success Criteria

Remember to add a comment before a subprogram or selection statement to explain its purpose.

Complete the subprogram called http_status so that it:

  1. Returns “Bad request” if the status is 400.
  2. Returns “Authentication error” if the status is 401 or 403.
  3. Returns “Not found” if the status code is 404.
  4. Returns “Unknown error” for any other status code.

A typical output from the program when code is 404 would be:

Not found
