1. An option is a choice presented to a user. For example, when closing a program, you may be prompted to save any open files with unsaved changes. Clicking "Yes" saves the file and closes the program; clicking "No" closes the program without saving the files, and your changes are discarded.

2. With HTML (hypertext markup language), the <option> tag designates a list item in the <optgroup>, <datalist>, or <select> elements.
