Write an Odometer class. An odometer is the gauge on your car that measures distance traveled. In the United States, an odometer measures miles; elsewhere else, it measures kilometers. Many vehicles with electronic odometer interfaces have the ability to switch between miles and kilometers. The accuracy is 1/10 of a mile (kilometer).

Something to consider: if an odometer gets replaced, a new one must be able to be set to some specified mileage.

Include the following methods:

(a) __init__ ,__ str__ ,__ repr__ .

(b) The constructor must take two arguments that both have default values: one is mileage, and the other specifies units.

(c) Addition and subtraction both have one odometer operand and one numeric operand, where the numeric operand represents the miles being added/subtracted (not two odometer operands).

(d) Addition should be commutative (but not subtraction).

(e) Output should always be rounded to 1/10 mile (kilometer), but the odometer itself should maintain full floating-point accuracy.

Include sample code that uses your class and demonstrates the use of all methods as well as demonstrating error handling.
