The placement of text farther to the right or left of the surrounding text, making it easier to understand the program's structure.

• A. Indentation
• B. Hyperlink
• C. Whitespace
• D. Digital Footprint

Answer: (A)

Indentation is the spacing at the start of lines that shows which statements belong together. When you push a line to the right or left, you create a visual block, indicating that the lines inside belong to a loop, a conditional, a function, or another structure. That visual cue helps you understand the program’s structure quickly and see how control moves through the code. In this question, describing text being placed farther to the right or left to reveal structure matches what indentation does. Hyperlink is about linking to other pages, Digital Footprint is about data you leave online, and while whitespace is the general idea of spaces and tabs, indentation is the specific practice that uses that whitespace to highlight code blocks and impact readability.
