// Sample Data:
const days = ["Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday","Sunday"]
// Samle Data which has undefined items:
const days = ["Monday","Tuesday",,"Thursday",,"Saturday","Sunday"]
// This Post might be a good read, to see a few caveats and advantages:
// https://stackoverflow.com/questions/500504/why-is-using-for-in-for-array-iteration-a-bad-idea
//Classic For Loop using 3 expressions iterates all array indexes:
for (let i=0; i<days.length; i++){
console.log("Day: "+days[i])
}
//for..in iterates defined array indexes:
for (let day in days){
console.log("Day: ", days[day]);
}
//for..of iterates all array items:
for (let day of days){
console.log("Day: ", day);
}
//using array methods might be more suitable depending on the scenario:
days.forEach(function(day){
console.log("Day: ", day);
});
//available methods:
days.forEach()
days.map()
days.filter()
days.reduce()
days.every()
days.some() //this one is neat imo
...
let items = ['beef', 'cabbage', 'javascript']; // Defines a list of items
for (let item of items) { // Defines for loop with a variable of 'item'
console.log(item); // Prints the item that is found
}
const user ={
name:'Shirshak',
age:25,

money:'lolno'

for(let x in user){
console.log(user[x]) //name,age,subscriber and money(only get key not value)

How for-loops work
A for loop has 3 parts
I will go the through the first section, than the third and than the second.
The first part is where we will start, in this case, I want to start at 0.
for(let index = 0;)
than we say every time the loop repeats how much does it add?
In this case Im using numbers and adding 1 each time. so I say:
for(let index = 0; index = index + 1)
And the final part when do we want the loop to stop?
in this case I want it to stop at 10 so I will make my for-loop like this:
for(let index = 0; index < 10; index = index + 1)
Now I add the body to my for-loop
for(let index = 0; index < 10; index = index + 1) {
}
And now inside the body I run the command: console.log(index);
this will run the for-loop
for(let index = 0; index < 10; index = index + 1) {
console.log(index); } //-> 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
It will run to 9 not 10 because it did run 10 times, but
the index started at 0 not 1
