this and arrow functions code example

Example 1: Arrow Functions

// The usual way of writing function
const magic = function() {
  return new Date();
};

// Arrow function syntax is used to rewrite the function
const magic = () => {
  return new Date();
};
//or
const magic = () => new Date();

Example 2: how to make javascript function consise

multiplyfunc = (a, b) => { return a * b; }

Example 3: 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;

Example 4: arrow function javascript

const power = (base, exponent) => {
  let result = 1;
  for (let count = 0; count < exponent; count++) {
    result *= base;
  }
  return result;
};

//if the function got only one parameter

const square1 = (x) => { return x * x; };
const square2 = x => x * x;

// empty parameter

const horn = () => {
  console.log("Toot");
};

Example 5: concise body arrow functions javascript

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

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