Iteration
Iteration means a 'step'.
Each 'iteration' of something means changing by one step.
In computer programming 'iteration' is used to loop around and around a piece of code until a condition is met that ends the iteration.
For example:
FOR X=1 TO 10
PRINT DOCUMENT
NEXT
The computer code above will increase X by 1 with every iteration. On each iteration a document is printed. When X reaches 10, the iteration stops.
