Misleading error message when handling large index values

[chloeelim]

Description

Users may accidentally enter large index values, for instance, delete 11111111111. By the command format usage outlined in the UG, this command follows the command format of delete- however, the error message shown is rather confusing:

"Invalid command format! delete: Deletes a person identified by the index number used in the displayed person list. Parameters: INDEX (must be a positive integer) Example: delete 1"

Because the provided index is a positive integer, but the app does not parse the integer properly. Instead, the app should perhaps prompt that the provided index is not valid (not displayed in the list).
