Learned about Loops today

Loops

• are useful for repeating the same code multiple times.
• will often have slightly different code each time the loop runs, or the same code will run but with different variables.

Loops break Statement

• has similar utility to the break statement used in switch() conditionals
• is used to exit a loop before all iterations are complete and make the browser move on to any code that follows it.

Loops continue Statement

• is used to break or skip an iteration, if a specified condition occurs, and make the browser continuew ith the next iteration in the loop.

map() vs filter()

• map()in loops is used to modify items in a collection and create new collection containing the modified items -filter() modifies items in a collection and creates a new collection containing only the items that match

Tomorrow's Learning Plan

• for loops
• while and do loops
