Detailed explanation-1: -Iteration in programming means repeating steps, or instructions, over and over again. This is often called a ‘loop’. Algorithms consist of instructions that are carried out (performed) one after another.
Detailed explanation-2: -Repetition in a program means that lines of code will be run multiple times. Iteration is a term similar to repetition: it means to continue repeating an action until you achieve the correct outcome.
Detailed explanation-3: -Algorithms consist of steps that are carried out (performed) one after another. Sometimes an algorithm needs to repeat certain steps until told to stop or until a particular condition has been met. Iteration is the process of repeating steps.
Detailed explanation-4: -We will study three forms of iteration: tail-recursion, while loops, and for loops.
Detailed explanation-5: -Iteration means the act of repeating a process usually with the aim of approaching a desired goal or target or result. Each repetition of the process is also called “iteration”. The result of iteration is used as the starting point for the next iteration.
