js arrow functions and this code example
Example 1: 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 2: js arrow function this
const person = {
firstName: 'Viggo',
lastName: 'Mortensen',
fullName: function () {
return `${this.firstName} ${this.lastName}`
},
shoutName: function () {
setTimeout(() => {
//keyword 'this' in arrow functions refers to the value of 'this' when the function is created
console.log(this);
console.log(this.fullName())
}, 3000)
}
}
