An iteration or a sequence is best described by B. control structure.
Explanation:
- Iteration generally refers to the process of repeating a sequence of instructions a certain number of times or until a specific condition is met, which ties closely to control structures. Control structures in programming (like loops) dictate how code execution flows, including how iterations are performed.
Examples of Control Structures Related to Iteration:
-
For Loop: Repeats a block of code a specific number of times.
for i in range(5): print(i)
-
While Loop: Continues executing a block of code as long as a specified condition remains true.
count = 0 while count < 5: print(count) count += 1
In both examples, the control structures facilitate the iteration process.
