Iteration. Iteration means the act of repeating a process with the aim of approaching a desired goal, target or result. Each repetition of the process is also called an iteration, and the results of one iteration are used as the starting point for the next iteration.
In curling, each round is called an end.. Curling games are  typically 8 ends (about 2 hours), though in regional/state,  national, and international competition (includingâ¦ the Olympics)  games are typically 10 ends, with a 5-minute break after the 5th  end (these games take 2.5 to 2.75 hours).
The Early Game. I believe Curling, sometimes called âChess on Iceâ, has an Early, Middle and an End Game (no pun intended, honest). End Game is the final 3 ends and extra end if required. The Middle Game is the middle 3 ends and the Early game is then either 4 ends for a 10 end game or 2 ends for an 8 end match.
