The number of times a piece of code is repeated is called ____
A
iterations
B
redos
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Iteration, in the context of computer programming, is a process wherein a set of instructions or structures are repeated in a sequence a specified number of times or until a condition is met. When the first set of instructions is executed again, it is called an iteration.

Detailed explanation-2: -In programming specifically, iterative refers to a sequence of instructions or code being repeated until a specific end result is achieved. Iterative development is sometimes called circular or evolutionary development.

Detailed explanation-3: -Iteration is a term similar to repetition: it means to continue repeating an action until you achieve the correct outcome.

Detailed explanation-4: -In programming, iteration is often referred to as ‘looping’, because when a program iterates it ‘loops’ to an earlier step.

Detailed explanation-5: -Introduction. A loop is defined as a segment of code that executes multiple times. Iteration refers to the process in which the code segment is executed once. One iteration refers to 1-time execution of a loop. A loop can undergo many iterations.
