You are refactoring a codebase and converting regular functions to arrow functions. In which of the following cases would you need to be most cautious about changing the function type due to the "this" keyword's behavior?

  • When the function is used as an event handler
  • When the function is a method in a class or object
  • When the function uses "let" instead of "var"
  • When the function is used for mathematical operations
When converting regular functions to arrow functions, you need to be cautious when the function is a method in a class or object. Arrow functions do not have their own "this" binding and instead inherit it from their enclosing scope. This can lead to unexpected behavior in object methods if "this" is used within the function. In other cases, such as event handlers or simple functions, arrow functions may be safely used.
