The term “iteration” is derived from the Latin itero, meaning “repeat” or “do again.” In the context of software, “iteration” means repetitively performing a procedure multiple times, in sequence, and usually with an expectation of termination. The ECMAScript 6 specification introduces two high-level features—iterators and generators—to allow for cleaner, faster, and easier iteration.
