## Answers

### Answer by Hitesh Vohra

- **Structured design** is the breakdown of a problem into a number of well-organized solution components. It is primarily concerned with the design of the solution. Structured design has the advantage of providing a clearer knowledge of how the problem is being solved. Structured design also makes it easier for the designer to focus more precisely on the challenge.
- Structured design is primarily based on the 'divide and conquer' technique, in which an issue is divided into multiple smaller problems, each of which is solved separately until the entire problem is solved.
