Both iterate over the collection, one returns values the other doesn't. There's no difference in the iteration part.
People like to make rules on when to use them but I use map, and reduce way more than any other method regardless of mutability. Mutability is a choice of what we do with the data, not the function's themselves. We can choose to mutate or not using just map.

Thank you so much for your opinions !

Like others have said, they both do very different things. If you don't need to return an array, use
forEach
:)Map for immutable new array, forEach for mutations / side effects.
Depends on the usecase. I like map.
Very easy, if you need to return an array, use map. Otherwise forEach.
