THIS IS FOR PYTHON LANGUAGE

 

To do the upgrade, according to Microsoft, a computer needs to have at least 1GB of memory, and at least 1GHz processor, and either Windows 7 or Windows 8 currently installed.   All three requirements must be met.  Other operating systems do not meet the requirements. 

Write a program that asks the user for

  • The current memory in their computer, in GB.  (For example, a user with 8GB of memory would enter 8)
  • The current processor speed, in GHz. (For example, a user with a 2.6GHz processor should enter 2.6)
  • The name of their current operating system. (For example, a user could enter Windows 8 or Windows 7 or Windows XP or Linux or MacOS...)

Write a can_upgrade function that takes three arguments, the amount of memory, the processor speed, and current operating system.

In can_upgrade, use conditions to figure out if the user's computer can be upgraded to Windows 10 or not.  Your function should return one of the Boolean values True (if the computer can be upgraded) or False (if it can't be upgraded).

Call your can_upgrade function from main(), and use the return value to print a message to the user telling them if they can, or can't, upgrade.

Test your program with different combinations of memory, operating system and CPU.

For example, try 1 GB of memory, 0.5 GHz processor, and Windows 8. Make sure the program reports that you can't upgrade.  If it's giving you the wrong answer, know that and and or operators have an order of operations which may be causing your logic to evaluate differently to what you expect
