Scope isolation in a loop in TypeScript

TypeScriptVariables and DeclarationsBlock Scopingbeginner

What this snippet does

Using let in loops creates a new binding per iteration, preventing closure bugs and keeping variables scoped tightly.

Expected output

ReferenceError: loopVal is not defined

Why practise typing this

Typing variables and declarations code builds muscle memory for the symbols and indentation TypeScript uses most, which prose-based typing tests never cover. DevType measures your words per minute and accuracy on this snippet and tracks the individual characters you mistype, so later lessons can target them.
