In a loop, do variables reset after every iteration?

I am trying to understand when to use let vs const. When creating a variable in a loop, does the variable reset with each iteration? And what about nested loops? Do they follow the same rules? If they reset, it makes logical sense that you would use const for the variable, but if they don’t reset, then it makes sense to me that you would then need to use let.
