Answers for "how does javascript iterate through elements foward and backward"

js loop array backwards

let arr = [1, 2, 3];
arr.slice().reverse().forEach(x => console.log(x))

forward and reverse loop one by one js

var arr = ['red', 'blue', 'black', 'green'];
var currentIndex = 0;

var nextBtn = document.getElementById('nextBtn');
var prevBtn = document.getElementById('prevBtn');

nextBtn.addEventListener('click', nextItem);

prevBtn.addEventListener('click', prevItem);

function nextItem() {
  if (currentIndex === (arr.length - 1)) {
    return;
  }
  
  console.log(
    arr[++currentIndex]
  );
}

function prevItem() {
  if (currentIndex === 0) {
    return;
  }
  
  console.log(
    arr[--currentIndex]
  );
}
