```

### forEach
forEach(callbackfn: (value: T, index?: number, Queue?: Queue<T>) => void,
thisArg?: Object): void

Uses a callback to traverse the entries in this container and obtain their position indexes.

**Parameters**

| Name| Type| Mandatory| Description|
| -------- | -------- | -------- | -------- |
| callbackfn | function | Yes| Callback invoked to traverse the entries in the container.|
| thisArg | Object | No| Value to use when the callback is invoked.|

| Name| Type| Mandatory| Description|
| -------- | -------- | -------- | -------- |
| value | T | Yes| Value of the entry that is currently traversed.|
| index | number | No| Position index of the entry that is currently traversed.|
| Queue | Queue<T> | No| Instance that invokes the **forEach** method.|

```

### [Symbol.iterator]

[Symbol.iterator]\(): IterableIterator<T>


Obtains an iterator, each item of which is a JavaScript object.

**Return value**

| Type| Description|
| -------- | -------- |
| IterableIterator<T> | Iterator obtained.|

**Example**
```
let queue = new Queue();
queue.add(2);
queue.add(4);
queue.add(5);
queue.add(4);

// Method 1:
for (let item of queue) { 
  console.log(item); 
}

// Method 2:
let iter = queue[Symbol.iterator]();
let temp = iter.next().value;
while(temp != undefined) {
  console.log(temp);
  temp = iter.next().value;
}
