This document simulates the spread of a computer virus over time. It initializes parameters like the maximum time, infection probability, number of computers, and number of infections before a computer is fixed. It then runs a simulation for multiple trials, tracking the time until all computers are cleared, the probability a computer is infected at least once, and the average number of infections. The output provides the expected values for each metric based on the simulation results.
