In this JavaScript tutorial we look at, "An Intro to Loops in Programming, Loops in JavaScript on Codecademy's Loop Section, What is Iterate?". In this lesson, we go over what the Codecademy Loops Section for JavaScript will entail. We learn the basic high-end view of a loop and how it works. We do not go into the JavaScript syntax for a loop, but we go over how a loop works. We learn that any code that repeats parts of our code is a loop. We also learn that whenever we hear the word, iterate, it means to repeat. To say, we iterate through a loop means that we repeat parts of our code. Whenever you see the word iterate, just think the word repeat and it will clear the fog in your thinking. If there is one thing you take from this javascript lesson on Loops, it is that loops help us repeat our code as it checks if a condition is true and false. As long as the conditions are set correctly, we can accomplish a vast amount of computations using loops! Make sure to practice loops as you complete each lesson. Practice looping through data sets such as arrays and objects to truly master loops! Practice using JavaScript loops, and in so doing, you will master loops in all programming!
