Definition Of Iteration:

Process for arriving at a progressively 'better' decision or a desired result by repeating the rounds of analysis or the cycles of operations.
The objective is to bring the desired decision or result closer to discovery with each repetition (iteration). The iterative process can be used where the decision is not easily irrevocable (such as a marriage or war) or where the consequences of revocation could be costly. While a high number of iterations is desirable, it is usually constrained by the limited availability of time, energy, other resources, and presence of other pressures.
