What is the purpose of the 'iterator' pattern in container classes?

  1. To facilitate container traversal without exposing the internal structure

  2. To prevent memory leaks

  3. To increase the efficiency of data retrieval

  4. To enforce type safety

The correct answer is: To facilitate container traversal without exposing the internal structure

The iterator pattern is used in container classes to provide a way to traverse the elements of the container without exposing its internal structure. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the purpose of the iterator design pattern.
