Some in the security community argue that a lack of diversity is security vulnerability. For example, Firefox and Internet Explo

rer browsers have about 95% share of the market. What security risk does this level of market control introduce? Suppose there are 3 browsers with equal market share – does this reduce or eliminate the vulnerability?

Answer and Explanation:

This control of the market introduces cybersecurity threats due to the monopoly of the software. Due to the presence of more than 95% of people on two internet browsers, this increases the risk of people getting trapped.

Thus if the number of browsers would increase to three this will reduce the risk but it will not mitigate the problem, because still there will monopoly of the software, present in the market.

What is the result of expression 15 > 10 > 5 in C? What is the result of the same expression in Java?
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

java: error

C: false

Explanation:

In Java the compiler understand that you are trying to compare an integer (15) with a boolean (10 > 5) this generate the next error:

error: bad operand types for binary operator  

In C the compiler convert (15 > 10 > 5) in (15>10) > (10>5) which is equal to TRUE > TRUE, the compiler can also read it as 1 > 1 (since 1 is TRUE and 0 is FALSE).  like 1>1 is false then C program return false.

Using Python I need to Prompt the user to enter in a numerical score for a Math Class. The numerical score should be between 0 a
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

<em>The program doesn't use comments; See explanation section for detailed line by line explanation</em>

<em>Program starts here</em>

def lettergrade(subject,score):

     print(subject+": "+str(score))

     if score >= 90 and score <= 100:

           print("Letter Grade: A")

     elif score >= 80 and score <= 89:

           print("Letter Grade: B")

     elif score >= 70 and score <= 79:

           print("Letter Grade: C")

     elif score >= 60 and score <= 69:

           print("Letter Grade: D")

     elif score >= 0 and score <= 59:

           print("Letter Grade: F")

     else:

           print("Invalid Score")

maths = int(input("Maths Score: "))

english = int(input("English Score: "))

pe = int(input("PE Score: "))

science = int(input("Science Score: "))

arts = int(input("Arts Score: "))

lettergrade("Maths Class: ",maths)

lettergrade("English Class: ",english)

lettergrade("PE Class: ",pe)

lettergrade("Science Class: ",science)

lettergrade("Arts Class: ",arts)

Explanation:

The program makes the following assumptions:

Scores between 90–100 has letter grade A

Scores between 80–89 has letter grade B

Scores between 70–79 has letter grade C

Scores between 60–69 has letter grade D

Scores between 0–69 has letter grade E

<em>Line by Line explanation</em>

This line defines the lettergrade functions; with two parameters (One for subject or class and the other for the score)

def lettergrade(subject,score):

This line prints the the score obtained by the student in a class (e.g. Maths Class)

     print(subject+": "+str(score))

The italicized determines the letter grade using if conditional statement

<em>This checks if score is between 90 and 100 (inclusive); if yes, letter grade A is printed</em>

<em>      if score >= 90 and score <= 100:</em>

<em>            print("Letter Grade: A")</em>

<em />

<em>This checks if score is between 80 and 89 (inclusive); if yes, letter grade B is printed</em>

<em>      elif score >= 80 and score <= 89:</em>

<em>            print("Letter Grade: B")</em>

<em />

<em>This checks if score is between 70 and 79 (inclusive); if yes, letter grade C is printed</em>

<em>      elif score >= 70 and score <= 79:</em>

<em>            print("Letter Grade: C")</em>

<em />

<em>This checks if score is between 60 and 69 (inclusive); if yes, letter grade D is printed</em>

<em>      elif score >= 60 and score <= 69:</em>

<em>            print("Letter Grade: D")</em>

<em />

<em>This checks if score is between 0 and 59 (inclusive); if yes, letter grade F is printed</em>

<em>      elif score >= 0 and score <= 59:</em>

<em>            print("Letter Grade: F")</em>

<em />

<em>If input score is less than 0 or greater than 100, "Invalid Score" is printed</em>

<em>      else:</em>

<em>            print("Invalid Score")</em>

This line prompts the user for score in Maths class

maths = int(input("Maths Score: "))

This line prompts the user for score in English class

english = int(input("English Score: "))

This line prompts the user for score in PE class

pe = int(input("PE Score: "))

This line prompts the user for score in Science class

science = int(input("Science Score: "))

This line prompts the user for score in Arts class

arts = int(input("Arts Score: "))

The next five statements is used to call the letter grade function for each class

lettergrade("Maths Class: ",maths)

lettergrade("English Class: ",english)

lettergrade("PE Class: ",pe)

lettergrade("Science Class: ",science)

lettergrade("Arts Class: ",arts)
