it's not about the name, it's about arguments plus returned value.
I do not know why John decided at that time to make jQuery.fn.each "a bit
redundant" avoiding JS 1.6 forEach MDC specs and limiting performances boost
via native callback ( it would be a double wrap, one to return the jQuery
object plus one to swap arguments into forEach ).
prototype.each = function(callback){
var $this = this;
Array.prorotype.forEach.call(this, function(el, i, all){
callback.call($this, i, el);
});
return this;
};
Above snippet will decrease performances, rather than increase them ...
If interested, with vice-versa you have perfromaneces focused Array JS 1.8
methods in every browser:
