When discussing the difference between arrow functions and regular (or traditional) functions?

Syntax:

Regular Function:

   function regularFunction(parameter) {
    // function body
  }

Arrow Function:

  const arrowFunction = (parameter) => {
    // function body
  };

this Binding:
- Regular Function:
  - Has its own this binding, which is determined by how the function is called.
- Can be influenced by methods like bind, call, or apply.
- Suitable for methods in objects or constructors.
- Creates a new this context in every function call.
- Example:
```
  function regularFunction() {
    console.log(this);
  }
```
- Arrow Function:
  - Lexically binds this to the enclosing scope, which means it inherits this from the surrounding code.
  - Well-suited for concise functions and avoiding issues related to changing this context.
  - Example:
```
  const arrowFunction = () => {
    console.log(this);
  };
```
Arguments Object:
- Regular Function:
  - Has access to the arguments object.
  - Example:

        function regularFunction() {
          console.log(arguments);
        }

Arrow Function:
- Does not have its own arguments object. It inherits the arguments from its enclosing scope.
- Example:

        const arrowFunction = (...args) => {
          console.log(args);
        };

Use Cases:
- Regular Function:
  - Suitable for most use cases, especially when you need a standalone function with its own this.
- Arrow Function:
  - Well-suited for concise, short functions and when you want to preserve the surrounding this context, such as in callbacks and functional programming.
