Matthew recently authored an innovative algorithm for solving a mathematical problem,
and he wants to share it with the world. however, prior to publishing the software code in
a technical journal, he wants to obtain some sort of intellectual property protection. which
type of protection is best suited to his needs?
a. copyright
b. trademark
c. patent
d. trade secret

A. Copyright

Explanation:

Copyright is a law that gives the owner of a work: a book, movie, picture, song or website or in this case an algorithm the sole right to say how other people can use it. Copyright laws make it easier and encourage authors to get creative and earn through their work. With this, the author's work can only be duplicated if he gives permission. In this case, Matthew would have his lawyer draw up his copyright to protect his algorithm and may then distribute and give permission for it's duplication or distribution.
