Get loop counter/index using for…of syntax in JavaScript

Question

Caution:

question still applies to for…of loops.> Don\'t use for…in to iterate over an Array, use it

Answer 1

In ES6, it is good to use for - of loop. You can get index in for of like this

for (let [index, val] of array.entries()) {
        // your code goes here    
}

Note that Array.entries() returns an iterator, which is what allows it to work in the for-of loop; don't confuse this with Object.entries(), which returns an array of key-value pairs.
