I should have explained the use case better: I need to store an indexed array of elements for cache/querying later on; so forEach() isn't a good fit here.

Other people suggested Array.from(), but that won't work in IE, and the polyfill for it is a lot longer/more complex than the for loop I wrote.

Sure, the other two answers may be "outdated" but they're still extremely useful if you're looking to calling map/filter/etc against your queried elements.

For that you can write:

    const elements = document.querySelectorAll('.some-class');
    const values = Array.prototype.map.call(elements, element => element.value);

or more idiomatically (and perhaps a little slower):

    const elements = [...document.querySelectorAll('.some-class')];
    const values = elements.map(element => element.value);

They asked about looping, not mapping or filtering.

Or if you prefer:

    for (const element of document.querySelectorAll('.some-class')) {
      // ...
    }
