JavaScript basics and arrow functions clarified

Day 3 — JavaScript is humbling me in the best way. Started with the basics I thought I already knew. Turns out I knew the syntax but not the why. var vs let vs const — I used to just pick randomly. Now I get why const is default and var is basically legacy. The thing that actually clicked today: arrow functions aren't just shorter syntax. They handle 'this' differently. That's why everyone prefers them in certain situations. Also spent an hour on map, filter, and reduce with real data instead of fake tutorials. Way more useful. Favourite thing I learned: optional chaining (?.) — it's saved me from so many "cannot read property of undefined" errors already.
