* fix: raise ValueError in encode() for non-lowercase input
encode() previously accepted uppercase letters, digits, and other
non-lowercase characters silently, producing incorrect/out-of-range
values (e.g. negative numbers for uppercase letters) instead of
failing. Add input validation using str.islower() and str.isalpha()
to raise a ValueError when the input isn't purely lowercase a-z.
Added a doctest covering the new error case.
* resolved doctest
* Fix Ruff 0.16 lint failures
* Enhance encode function error handling examples
Update error handling in encode function to include examples for mixed case and invalid characters.
* Fix indentation in test_cancer_data function
