Hello.  
I have been trying to place markers on a map from firebase for several days without success. I’ve been searching in the forum and following examples but I can’t understand certain variables.  
Here I leave what I’m doing and I would like someone to please guide me. Thank you very much for your help.

you are using a `for each j in list` but then you do not use it.

See how to use it the correct way. If you are saving `latitud and longitud` as text then you need to put them in a match block to convert them to numbers.
