**_map, filter and reduce _**are essentially just some of the most well-known, easy to use, higher-order functions that run provided callback on each element of an array.

**1.**Easy to comprehend.

2. Less prone to side effects as these function don’t modify the actual array, and instead create a new one.

**3. **Avoid explicit loops.

Let’s explore and familiarize ourselves with these functions.
