The first antivirus was written in 1987 by the German security expert Bernd and the name of the antivirus is Vienna Virus.

Antivirus: It is a software or anti-malware software that is used for providing security. It is a tool that runs on various digital devices and searches for files that should not be on your computer. If the file is found then It defends the computer from incoming threats and seeks-out, stops and alerts of viable threats from the system so the computer works properly. So, the first antivirus was developed in 1987 by German security expert Bernd.

Can you help me with these AP Computer Science Questions. (THIS IS DUE BY 1:30 PM today) you have to evaluate the Boolean Expres

vfiekz [6]

Answer + Explanation:

'and' -> both statements are 'True' to evaluate as 'True'.

'or' -> at least one statement is 'True' to evaluate as 'True'.

1. True (grade has the value of 82, so the statement evaluates to 'True').

2. True (Both statements are true, this expression evaluates to 'True').

3. False (Both statements are false, this expression evaluates to 'False').

4. True (the != operator means not equal. Since the 'name' variable holds the string 'Rumpelstiltskin', name != 'Rumpelstiltskin' evaluates to 'False'. The 'not' operator returns the opposite of the given Boolean expression, so this expression evaluates to 'True').

5. True (name == 'Rumpelstiltskin' evaluates to 'True', so this expression is true).

6. False (All statements evaluate to 'False').

7. True (All statements evaluate to 'True').

8. False (All statements evaluate to 'True' except for not(x == - 3) which evaluates to 'False', so the whole statement now becomes false).

9. True (grade+5 < 90 and grade >= 80 evaluates to 'True', so this whole expression becomes true).

10. True (grade > 0 and x % 2 == 1 evaluates to 'True')

Hope this helps :)
