Example 2: arrow function

// Traditional Function
function (a){
  return a + 100;
}

// Arrow Function Break Down

// 1. Remove the word "function" and place arrow between the argument and opening body bracket
(a) => {
  return a + 100;
}

// 2. Remove the body brackets and word "return" -- the return is implied.
(a) => a + 100;

// 3. Remove the argument parentheses
a => a + 100;

const plantNeedsWater = day => day === 'Wednesday' ? true : false;

//If only 1 Parameter no () needed
//Single line return is implicit
//Single line no {} needed
