# Isogram
Determine if a word or phrase is an isogram.
An isogram (also known as a "nonpattern word") is a word or phrase without a repeating letter, however spaces and hyphens are allowed to appear multiple times.
Examples of isograms:
- lumberjacks
- background
- downstream
- six-year-old
The word *isograms*, however, is not an isogram, because the s repeats.
## Exception messages
Sometimes it is necessary to raise an exception. When you do this, you should include a meaningful error message to
indicate what the source of the error is. This makes your code more readable and helps significantly with debugging. Not
every exercise will require you to raise an exception, but for those that do, the tests will only pass if you include
a message.
To raise a message with an exception, just write it as an argument to the exception type. For example, instead of
`raise Exception`, you shold write:
```python
raise Exception("Meaningful message indicating the source of the error")
```
## Submitting Exercises
Note that, when trying to submit an exercise, make sure the solution is in the `exercism/python/<exerciseName>` directory.
For example, if you're submitting `bob.py` for the Bob exercise, the submit command would be something like `exercism submit <path_to_exercism_dir>/python/bob/bob.py`.
For more detailed information about running tests, code style and linting,
please see the [help page](http://exercism.io/languages/python).
