Identify the bug in the following availability check code:

def is_available(stock, requested):
    if requested > stock:
        return True
    else:
        return False

print(is_available(5, 10))

AThe function should return False when requested is greater than stock

BThe function is correct and returns True

CThe condition should be 'requested <= stock' to return True

DThe function should compare 'stock > requested' instead

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Analyze the condition logic
Current code returns True if requested > stock, meaning more requested than available stock.
Step 2: Correct logic for availability
Availability means stock should be enough or more than requested. So, if requested > stock, return False.
Final Answer:
The function should return False when requested is greater than stock -> Option A
Quick Check:
Requested > stock means not available [OK]

Quick Trick: Availability means stock >= requested, else False [OK]
