00:00:00,610 --> 00:00:04,840
Let me show you just one more thing
about forEach before we move on.

2
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:09,210
Let's go the MDN documentation page for
the forEach method.

3
00:00:09,210 --> 00:00:13,130
You can see here that the callback in
forEach actually accepts some other

4
00:00:13,130 --> 00:00:17,000
parameters besides the array
element we've been using.

5
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:21,280
The second parameter will hold
the index of the current element.

6
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:24,030
So if the current value
is the first element, for

7
00:00:24,030 --> 00:00:27,450
example, the index value will be zero.

8
00:00:27,450 --> 00:00:31,470
If it's the second element
the index will be one, and so on.

9
00:00:31,470 --> 00:00:35,060
If your code relies on the position
of the elements in an array,

10
00:00:35,060 --> 00:00:37,120
this can be helpful to know.

11
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:41,380
The third parameter will
hold the whole array itself.

12
00:00:41,380 --> 00:00:46,010
Neither of these parameters are useful for
most applications, but I just wanted to

13
00:00:46,010 --> 00:00:50,740
make sure you knew about them in case
you see examples where they're used.

14
00:00:50,740 --> 00:00:54,280
I'll just demonstrate
the index property quickly.

15
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:59,470
Let's say we want to print all
the names in this array here, and

16
00:00:59,470 --> 00:01:01,350
we want to number them as well.

17
00:01:03,220 --> 00:01:06,740
I'll just add a second parameter,
the index, to this callback.

18
00:01:14,078 --> 00:01:18,449
I'll replace this function body
with a call to console.log,

19
00:01:18,449 --> 00:01:21,550
passing in a template literal.

20
00:01:21,550 --> 00:01:26,010
Since arrays are zero-based
I'm adding 1 to the index, and

21
00:01:26,010 --> 00:01:28,080
putting a parenthesis, and then the name.

22
00:01:29,100 --> 00:01:32,150
I'll delete this console.log
below the loop as well.

23
00:01:34,602 --> 00:01:40,236
Now when I run this code, You

24
00:01:40,236 --> 00:01:44,160
can see the index number has been
accessed to provide these numbers.

25
00:01:45,630 --> 00:01:47,480
One more thing, the index and

26
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:52,940
array parameters are available on all of
the array methods we cover in this course.

27
00:01:52,940 --> 00:01:56,350
If you ever have questions about
what parameters methods accept,

28
00:01:56,350 --> 00:01:59,115
I recommend checking out MDN for details.

29
00:01:59,115 --> 00:02:02,960
I've created some additional practice for
you after this video.
