About me

Hi I'm Marcos, a lucky fellow. Yes, I'm lucky because I was born in the 70s and was part of the generation that first had access to PCs. And even if my first touch with a computer was thanks to video games, I had soon developed a fascination with the software and programming ever since.

My studies span from foreign languages, to Italian literature, psychology and philosophy. But unfortunately, due to family issues, I had to drop studies. That didn't stop my passion and curiosity, though: I taught myself Lotus Notes code while in university, someone believed in me and so, almost by chance, I made this my job. Currently, I have been employed for over twenty years in the software industry and, since a couple, have moved up to the Architect position, after enjoying my time as developer and tech lead for more than 15 years.

Some guidelines (like AirBnB’s) recommend to avoid looping functions in favor of native constructs. In this article, I’ll try to explain the differences between the main array iterators: for loop, for…in, for…of and .forEach().
