In this programming lesson we look at, "Learn JavaScript on Codecademy, Why Repeating Tasks Manually Calls For Loops in Programming, JS ES6". This lesson is setting us up for the next lessons that deal with loops. This lesson is teaching us why loops would be beneficial to understand. It explains, imagine if you had a list of 100 or more people. now imagine you needed to console log each person on that list. This would cause us to have to create console.logs for each item we want to log to the console. Loops allow us to quickly loop through a list and do some action, such as console log the specific item we are at in our loop. If you are having a hard time understanding this still, do not fret, we will be going over loops and how loops work in JavaScript in the next lessons. Understanding loops in JavaScript and understanding loops in programming is a huge step in developing as a developer! Make sure to study loops in javascript and as long as you are understanding their function, then you will understand them in all programming problems that arise.
