Did People get communications act for the act?

And for computer miscue act I wrote distributing viruses?

I didn't really understand about the pre-defined function,where it name a type of pre-defined function and describe it's function (I wrote text tool)

Was this for the cloning one?

Yeah I wrote viruses for that.
What does everyone think got? I'd say I got about 55-65%
Me neither! I wondered if it was the <a href><Img src> html tag, but the file wasn't html, so I just wrote resources/dance.gif or something :confused:

Was one of the answers what you taught me yesterday ?

I saw an Array with Money in it. It had decimal points so I wrote An Array of reals as the answer. Does that ring any bells ?


Yep it was an array of reals !!

It was certainly much more different from the 2015 paper. I'd say slightly more harder, But nothing that couldn't be done.

Are you talking about the question that said Why someone cloned a phone or something like that ?

I also put Communications act but I guessed.

Output for what the user one?



Different Operating system

Didn't have enough data to run it i.e required 32GB, But only had 16GB


I got output for the novice one in section A ?

And I got the same as you for the operating system

Wasn't the novice one just "Expert" ?
I was like, Communications Act is the only one that hasn't been mentioned yet, so....:awesome:

For the phone being cloned by the neighbour I wrote copyright design and patnents act. Does clone not mean to copy? If so that's why I wrote it.

What did you guys put for the 2 ways to commit the computer misuse act or something like that ?? It was near the end of the paper

Oh WHY do they write {DO NOT WRITE HERE] page in the middle of the paper ? I nearly missed out like all of the questions


I said identity theft (don't think it's right) for the first one and viewing illegal content for the second

It cause it said cloning their neighbours phone so I thought it will be communications act

Harder but not by a lot. I thought it was missing a lot of the easy marks you get in past papers

Actually thinking about it, you're probably right.
How do you clone a phone, anyway? :confused:

If the easier typed questions that were in the 2015 paper seemed quite weird this time. For example, The Navigation website question
