1. - forEach() — executes a provided function once for each array element.
- map() — creates a new array with the results of calling a provided function on every element in the calling array.

2. Functions are defined outside of classes, while Methods are defined inside of and part of classes.

3. A closure is an inner function that has access to the outer (enclosing) function's variables—scope chain.

4. Four rules are:
- Global Object Binding (in the global scope, the value of “this” will be the window
- Implicit Binding (a function is called by a preceding dot, the object before that dot is this)
- New binding (a constructor function is used, this refers to the specific instance of the object that is created and returned by the constructor function)
- Explicit binding (JavaScript’s call or apply method is used, this is explicitly defined)

5. Super() is used to pass any new attributes back up to the constructor of the parent object.

While you've partially done this stretch goal correctly (great job!), this isn't really a CubeMaker. It's another CuboidMaker. The biggest difference between a Cube and a Cuboid is that all the sides of a Cube are the same length, but a Cuboid can have sides of different length. As such, a CubeMaker would only take one argument, as all of the sides would be equal to that one argument. Here is an example, please let me know if you have any questions:

class CubeMaker extends CuboidMaker {
    constructor(length){
        super(length);
        this.length = length;
        this.width = length;
        this.height = length;
    }
    volume() {
      return Math.pow(this.length, 3);
    }
    surfaceArea() {
      return 6 * Math.pow(this.length, 2);
    }
}
const cube = new CubeMaker(5);

Also take note of how the volume() and surfaceArea() methods are different.

}
volume(){
return 3*(this.length)*(this.width)*(this.height);
}
surfaceArea(){
return 5*((this.length)*(this.width)+(this.length)*(this.height)+(this.width)*(this.height));
}
}

const cuboid = new CuboidMaker({length: 4, width: 5,height: 5});
const cube = new CubeMaker ({length: 1, width: 2,height: 3});

console.log(cuboid.volume()); // 100
console.log(cuboid.surfaceArea()); // 130

console.log(cube.volume());
console.log(cube.surfaceArea());


// Test your volume and surfaceArea methods by uncommenting the logs below:
// console.log(cuboid.volume()); // 100

While you are logging out the correct values here, the request is for you to create an array of the values that you are logging. Currently, you're just logging out a single string every time your forEach method loops. Then, when you log out the animalNames array with console.log(animalNames) you are logging out an empty array [].

The correct way to do this, is by using the push array method. Here is an example (using an arrow function), please let me know if you have any questions:

const animalNames = [];
zooAnimals.forEach(zooAnimal => {animalNames.push(`Name: ${zooAnimal.animal_name}, Scientific: ${zooAnimal.scientific_name}.`)})
console.log(animalNames);

/* Request 2: .map()

The zoos need a list of all their animal's names (names only, not scientific) converted to lower case. Create a new array named lowerCase and map over each name to convert them all to lower case. Log the resut.

*/

const lowerCase = [];
lowerCase.push(zooAnimals.map(function(zooAnimal){return zooAnimal.animal_name.toLowerCase()}));

Here you are creating a new array (with the map array method) and then pushing that newly created array into the lowerCase array. So you're making an array of objects nested inside of another array, like this: [ [{'property': 'value'}] ] when it should just be an array of objects, like this: [{'property': 'value'}].

To resolve this, just assign the newly created array to the lowerCase variable, instead of pushing the newly created array into the array assigned to the lowerCase variable. Here is an example (I'm also using arrow notation), please let me know if you have any questions:

const lowerCase = zooAnimals.map(zooAnimal => zooAnimal.animal_name.toLowerCase()); 


console.log(lowerCase);

/* Request 3: .filter()

const largerPopulation = []; //is is a trick to call the variable largePopulation and ask about small populations?

largerPopulation.push(zooAnimals.filter((zooAnimal)=>zooAnimal.population < 5));

Similar to the above lowerCase issue, here you are creating a new array (with the map array method) and then pushing that newly created array into the largerPopulation array. So you're making an array of objects nested inside of another array, like this: [ [{'property': 'value'}] ] when it should just be an array of objects, like this: [{'property': 'value'}].

To resolve this, just assign the newly created array to the largerPopulation variable, instead of pushing the newly created array into the array assigned to the largerPopulation variable. Here is an example (I'm also using arrow notation), please let me know if you have any questions:

const largerPopulation = zooAnimals.filter(zooAnimal => (zooAnimal)=>zooAnimal.population < 5)); 


console.log(largerPopulation);

/* Request 4: .reduce()

The zoos need to know their total animal population across the United States. Find the total population from all the zoos using the .reduce() method.

populationTotal.push(zooAnimals.reduce(function (sum, current) {return sum + current.population},0));

Using push is fine here, but it is better to assign the value directly to populationTotal like:
const populationTotal = zooAnimals.reduce(function (sum, current) {return sum + current.population},0).

This is because an array is meant to hold a collection of values, whereas your reduce function is reducing down to and returning only a single value. Pushing that single value into an array is unnecessary.

console.log(populationTotal);
