purpose of arrow functions in javascript code example
Example 1: js anonymous function es6
// (param1, param2, paramN) => expression
// ES5
var multiplyES5 = function(x, y) {
return x * y;
};
// ES6
const multiplyES6 = (x, y) => { return x * y };
Example 2: javascript arrow function
// Non Arrow (standard way)
let add = function(x,y) {
return x + y;
}
console.log(add(10,20)); // 30
// Arrow style
let add = (x,y) => x + y;
console.log(add(10,20)); // 30;
// You can still encapsulate
let add = (x, y) => { return x + y; };
Example 3: arrow function javascript
params => ({foo: "a"}) // returning the object {foo: "a"}
