Question 7

Freeware and free software mean the same thing.

Answer

False

Reason — Freeware is a type of software available free of cost, permitting copying and distribution but not modification, with its source code not available. On the other hand, free software, or open-source software, can be freely used, modified, improved, copied, and distributed without any payment required.
