What is the difference between for...of and for...in statements in JavaScript?

for…in loop

The “for...in” loop is used to loop through an object's properties.

Here’s the syntax −

Syntax

for (variablename in object) {
statement or block to execute
}

You can try to run the following example to implement ‘for-in’ loop. It prints the web browser’s Navigator object
