Previously, submitting a course code with an invalid format (e.g., missing a required suffix like 'UE25CS301') would cause a
ValueErrorinparse_course_code. This error was uncaught in the/api/submissionsendpoint, leading to an unhandled 500 Internal Server Error.This change wraps the call to
parse_course_codeinbackend/app/routes/submissions.pywithin atry...except ValueErrorblock. If aValueErroroccurs, anHTTPExceptionwith a 400 Bad Request status code is now raised, providing a more appropriate and user-friendly error response to the client. The original exception is chained usingfrom excfor better debugging consistency.Fixes PYTHON-FASTAPI-1G
