foreach is useful when you don’t need to know the index of something. If you do, conventional i, j, k, etc. are useful.
A lot of it depends what you’re doing (number crunching, for instance) or if you’re in a limited programming language (why won’t BASIC die already?) where parallel arrays are still a thing.
WTF, I have never used nor seen “j.”
I don’t usually have to name these variables these days though. Pretty much everything I use has foreach or some functional programming type stuff.
And like that, the off-by-one mistakes disappear.
