Explanation:

Required

Determine the error the program returned

The above will return a ValueError error and the reason is as follows.

The first line of the program initializes variable as 'live'.

The next line tries to convert answer to integer and this is where it returns the error'.

On the second line, variable amount expects that the answer variable to contain number e.g. '567' but because it doesn't contain a complete number (i.e. unexpected values), the program returns a ValueError.
