I need some guidance.

```auto

var temp:Array = new Array();
temp[0] = 0;
temp[1] = 1;
temp[2] = 2;

for(var i in temp){
	trace(temp*);
}
for(var i = 0; i < temp.length; i++){
	trace(temp*);
}

```

Logically it should print out  
0  
1  
2  
0  
1  
2

But instead it prints out  
2  
1  
0  
0  
1  
2

Why? Try this out for yourself and see if it works.
