What this snippet does
Arrow functions inherit 'this' from their enclosing lexical scope — never use them as object methods that need 'this'.
Expected output
arrow: undefined regular: Alice
Why practise typing this
Typing functions code builds muscle memory for the symbols and indentation JavaScript uses most, which prose-based typing tests never cover. DevType measures your words per minute and accuracy on this snippet and tracks the individual characters you mistype, so later lessons can target them.
