nts in this
iterator and then terminates.

[ ` Iterator.prototype.toArray() ` ](/en-
US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Iterator/toArray) Experimental

    

Creates a new [ ` Array ` ](/en-
US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array) instance populated with
the elements yielded from the iterator.

[ ` Iterator.prototype[@@iterator]() ` ](/en-
US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Iterator/@@iterator)

    

Returns the iterator object itself. This allows iterator objects to also be
iterable.

##  Examples

###  Using an iterator as an iterable

All built-in iterators are also iterable, so you can use them in a ` for...of
` loop:

js

    
    
    const arrIterator = [1, 2, 3].values();
    for (const value of arrIterator) {
      console.log(value);
    }
    // Logs: 1, 2, 3
