Answer Key

Screenshots and shared copies

Section A: Quick Questions

A — Yes, someone could have taken a screenshot before you deleted it

B — Anyone who can see your post can take a screenshot of it

B — Any of them could screenshot it or forward it to others

A — A new copy now exists that the first sender cannot control

A — A saved copy might still exist, so I should think before posting

Section B: Match the Pairs

screenshot → A picture of a screen that someone can take and share, so a copy of your post can stay even after you delete it.

forward(message) → Sends a copy of a message on to other people, who may share it again without you knowing.

A friend can save your photo from a chat, so it still exists after you delete it from the chat. → save(photo)

Even a post in a private chat can be copied and shared with people you never chose. → screenshot(privateChat)

delete(post) // now every copy is gone → Deleting your post only removes the original. Screenshots and saved copies made by other people can still exist.

send(privateChat, photo) // nobody can share this → Anyone in a private chat can screenshot or save the photo and share it, so it is not guaranteed to stay private.

Section C: Definitions

screenshot — A picture of your screen that anyone can take and share. Even if you delete your post, a saved copy can still exist.

Section D: Fill in the Blanks

post = "My new photo"
copy = screenshot(post)
delete(post)

post = "Oops!"
delete(post)
copyExists = true

message = "Our secret"
forward(message, friend)
copyExists = true

copies = 1
delete(original)
print(copies > 0)

send(post, chat)
copy = screenshot(chat)
delete(post)

Section E: Spot the Error

A — The text is missing its closing quote. It should be post ← "Match photo". The screenshot and the copy come after this line.

D — Sam and Kai both now have a copy of the message. Even if you delete yours, copies still exist, so copyExists must be true.

B — The friend saves the photo, so they keep their own copy. If they deleted it, no copy would remain. It should be friend.save(photo).

B — The comma between the two things inside send() is missing. It should be send(post, "Private chat"). A private chat post can still be screenshotted.

D — The post was deleted, so the friend can only share the screenshot. It should be friend.share(pic).
