The correct answer is: B. Desk-checking

Desk-checking is a method of checking the correctness of an algorithm by hand. It involves tracing through the algorithm step-by-step, using pencil and paper to record the values of variables and intermediate results. This can help to identify errors in logic or in the order of operations.

Disk-checking, drive-checking, and paper-checking are not terms that are used in computer science.
