+### Using `auto`
+
+Being explicit about types is usually preferred over using `auto`.
+
+Use `auto` to avoid type names that are noisy, obvious, or unimportant. When
+doing so, keep in mind that explicit types often help with readability and
+verifying the correctness of code.
+
+```cpp
+for (const auto& item : some_map) {
+  const KeyType& key = item.first;
+  const ValType& value = item.second;
+  // The rest of the loop can now just refer to key and value,
+  // a reader can see the types in question, and we've avoided
+  // the too-common case of extra copies in this iteration.
+}
