- Avoid constructors with side-effects
- Prefer `.map`, `.reduce` or `.filter` over `.forEach`
A forEach will cause side effects, it will be mutating the array being iterated. Prefer using `.map`,
`.reduce` or `.filter`
```javascript
const users = [ { name: 'Foo' }, { name: 'Bar' } ];
// bad
users.forEach((user, index) => {
user.id = index;
});
// good
const usersWithId = users.map((user, index) => {
return Object.assign({}, user, { id: index });
});
```
#### Parse Strings into Numbers
- `parseInt()` is preferable over `Number()` or `+`
