1. Describe the biggest difference between `.forEach` & `.map`.

The .map method stores return values and returns a new array.
The .forEach method throws away return values and will mutate the current array.


2. What is the difference between a function and a method?

A function performs a task or calculates a value.
A method IS a function that is the property of an object.


3. What is closure?

Closure is a function and all of its lexical environment.

4. Describe the four rules of the 'this' keyword.

1. Global Binding
When in the global scope, the value of “this” will be the window/console Object;
2. Implicit Binding
Whenever a function is called by a method inside of an object, the object left of the dot gets ‘this’.
3. New Binding
Whenever a constructor function is used, ‘this’ refers to the specific instance of the object that is created and returned by the constructor function.
4. Explicit Binding
Whenever JavaScript’s call or apply method is used, ‘this’ is explicitly defined.


5. Why do we need super() in an extended class?

The super() keyword illuminates the need for the parent call inside the constructor and automatically binds the parent to the child.
