Thank you, I understand now.
Python:
https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Agithub.com+for+%22in+enumerate%22
PHP:
https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Agithub.com+foreach(%24a+as+%24k+%3D%3E+%24v)
Objective C:
https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Agithub.com+enumerateObjectsUsingBlock
JavaScript:
https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Agithub.com+%22forEach(function(value%2C+index%22

Note that I restricted search to a single repository site to avoid
catching various manuals and discussions.
I had also fix parameter names for some languages, because Google does
not support regexp search.
Even with those limitations, you may notice that each search returns
thousands of results.
I do not wish to enter an argument about how "respected" those
languages and projects are --
but I hope it demonstrates unambiguously the popularity of the feature.
