Some of these are bad. Pathlib is great for a one-liner to read files, and the “.get()” is broken. If it returns None, you’ll get an error about comparing None to an integer.
The type annotation `Optional[Tuple[int, int]]` is the equivalent to `None | Tuple[int, int]`. `Tuple[Optional[int], Optional[int]]` is what you wanted.

Stopped reading there.

Why is use of print better than the logging module?
