What are the differences between nested loops and iteration?

Nested loops are loops within loops, while iteration refers to executing a loop a specific number of times. Would you like examples?

Yes, can you provide an example of a nested loop?

Sure! A nested loop example is a loop that iterates over rows and another that iterates over columns in a matrix.

How does that compare to a simple iteration?

In simple iteration, you might just loop through a list once, processing each item without additional layers.

When should I use nested loops instead of iteration?

Use nested loops when dealing with multi-dimensional data structures, like matrices, where you need to access elements in a grid-like fashion.
