Simplified Client Code:?

Q: Simplified Client Code:?

Short answer: The client code doesn't need to know the internal implementation of the collection (e.g., whether it's a list or a tree). It can use the iterator interface to access the elements sequentially, leading to cleaner and more maintainable code. Say this in the interview Define — one clear sentence (the short answer above). Example — relate it to a project like ShopNest or your real work. Trade-off — when you would not use it.
