why we use 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: 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;
