iterate
Loop and refine
To iterate is to repeat or do again, especially in a systematic way.
In computing and mathematics, iteration means executing the same operation repeatedly, often with slight modifications each time: The program iterates through the list until it finds a match.
More broadly, to iterate on something is to refine it through successive versions: We iterated on the design based on user feedback.
The noun iteration refers to each repetition or version.
