JavaScript Loops Tutorial: for, while, do while
Loops let JavaScript repeat code without writing it twice. Learn the three core loop types, what each one does, and when to choose one over another.
Master JavaScript from basics to advanced
Loops let JavaScript repeat code without writing it twice. Learn the three core loop types, what each one does, and when to choose one over another.
A while loop repeats code as long as a condition stays true. Learn the syntax, see practical examples, and understand when a while loop is the right choice over a for loop.
The for loop is the most common way to repeat code in JavaScript. Learn the three-part syntax, how each part works, and how to write clean, readable for loops.
The do while loop guarantees the body runs at least once before checking the condition. Learn the syntax, when this behavior matters, and practical real-world use cases.
Looping through arrays is the most practical use of JavaScript for loops. Learn how to access each element by index, avoid off-by-one errors, and choose between for, for...of, and forEach.
Learn how shift() and unshift() add and remove elements from the beginning of a JavaScript array. Understand the performance cost and when to reach for these methods.
Learn three ways to merge arrays in JavaScript: concat(), the spread operator, and push() with spread. Each method has different strengths for different situations.
Learn every use of the spread operator (...) with arrays: copying, merging, inserting elements, converting iterables, and passing array elements as function arguments.
The spread operator creates shallow copies. Learn what that means for nested objects and arrays, how to avoid shared reference bugs, and when to use structuredClone.
map() returns a new array. forEach() returns undefined. Learn the key differences, when to use each, and why choosing the right one makes your code cleaner.
some() checks if any element passes a test. every() checks if all elements pass. Learn how these boolean array methods work with clear examples and practical use cases.
Destructuring unpacks array values into variables in one line. Learn the syntax, default values, skipping elements, rest patterns, and practical use cases.
