for-of:
- Introduced in ES6
- Usually a loop has counter, check-condition, updating counter. A for-of loop doesn't have anything like that.
- continue-break both can be used with it.
- Meant to give us current element.
fruits = ['banana','apple','peach','orange','mango','guava','water-melon'];
for(const item of fruits){
console.log(item);
}
'banana'
'apple'
'peach'
'orange'
'mango'
'guava'
'water-melon'
- If an array if looped over in the form of array.entries(), then the result will be each element in form of an array with index : value.
for(const item of fruits.entries()){
console.log(item);
}
[ 0, 'banana' ]
[ 1, 'apple' ]
[ 2, 'peach' ]
[ 3, 'orange' ]
[ 4, 'mango' ]
[ 5, 'guava' ]
[ 6, 'water-melon' ]
// Transform it into a single array comprising of sub-arrays:
fruits.entries(); // Object [Array Iterator] {}
[...fruits.entries()];
// [ [ 0, 'banana' ], [ 1, 'apple' ], [ 2, 'peach' ], [ 3, 'orange' ], [ 4, 'mango' ], [ 5, 'guava' ], [ 6, 'water-melon' ] ]
// Transform into a single array using for-of loop:
-> Method 1
for(const item of fruits.entries()){
console.log(`${item[0] + 1} : ${item[1]}`);
}
// '1 : banana' '2 : apple' '3 : peach' '4 : orange' '5 : mango' '6 : guava' '7 : water-melon'
-> Method 2
for(const [i,el] of fruits.entries()){
console.log(`${i + 1} : ${el}`);
}
// '1 : banana' '2 : apple' '3 : peach' '4 : orange' '5 : mango' '6 : guava' '7 : water-melon'
