An index is a list of words or phrases (often referred to as keywords or index terms) that can be
used to locate specific information within an information source, such as a book, document, or
database. It typically appears at the end of a book or document and includes page numbers or
references to where the information can be found. Indexes help users quickly find the topics or
terms they are looking for without having to read through the entire text.
