Answer: Phishing

Explanation: A cybercrime in which, a target or targets are contacted by email, telephone or text message by someone acting or posing as a legitimate institution to lure these targets or a target into providing sensitive data such as personally identifiable information, banking and credit card details, and passwords is referred to as Phishing.

The CyberCriminals use these information to access important accounts, steal identities and even money.

Beside email and website phishing, there are phishing methods like 'vishing' (voice phishing), 'smishing' (SMS Phishing).

SOME FEATURES OF PHISHING EMAILS

The Emails are usually Too Good To Be True with a sense of Urgency, telling you to click on the link fast because the offers are limited.

They may tell you that your account will be suspended unless you update your personal details immediately and with attachments you are supposed to click on and from an unusual sender.

Whether it looks like it's from someone you know or don't know if anything seems out of the ordinary, unexpected, out of character or just suspicious please don't click on it the link. It might just be phishing.

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Following are the code to the given question:

#include <iostream>//header file

using namespace std;

int main()//main method

{

int first = 0,second = 0,third = 0;//defining integer variable  

int temp; //defining integer variable

const string SENTINEL = "done"; // defining a string variable as constant  

string repeat;// defining a string variable  

bool notDone = true; //defining bool variable

cout << "Enter first number: ";//print message

cin >> first;//input value

cout << "Enter second number: ";//print message

cin >> second;//input value

cout << "Enter third number: ";//print message

cin >> third;//input value

while(notDone == true)//defining a loop to check the value  

{

if(first > second)//use if to compare first and second value

{

int temp = first;//defining temp to hold first value

first = second;//holding second value in first variable

second = temp;//holding temp value in second variable

}

if(second > third)//use if to compare second and third value

{

int temp = second;//defining temp to hold second value

second = third;//holding second value in third variable

third = temp;//holding temp value in third variable

}

cout << "Smallest: " << first << endl;//print smallest value

cout << "Next smallest: " << second << endl;//print Next smallest value

cout << "Largest: " << third << endl;////print Largest value

cout << "Enter any letter to continue or done to quit: ";//print message

cin >> repeat;//holding string value

if (repeat == SENTINEL)

{

notDone = false;//holding bool value

}  

else //else block

{

cout << "Enter first number: ";//print message

cin >> first;//input value

cout << "Enter second number: ";//print message

cin >> second;//input value

cout << "Enter third number: ";//print message

cin >> third;//input value

}

return 0;

}

}

Output:

Please find the attached file.

Explanation:

  • Inside the main method Four integer variable "first, second, third, and temp" is declared in which first three variable is used for input value and temp is used to compare value.
  • In thew next step, two string variable "SENTINEL and repeat" is declared in which "SENTINEL" is constant and a bool variable "notDone" is declared.
  • After input the value from the user-end a loop is declared that compare and swap value and print its value.
