It's weird that you are asking this after completing Javascript tutorial.

"Iteration is the repetition of a process in order to generate a (possibly unbounded) sequence of outcomes." ¹

1.you iterate over an array to print all it's element.
2.Use loop to iterate ,repeat some lines of code and print numbers in some range (1,2,3,4....9) etc.
