why we use componentdidmount in react code example

Example 1: component did update arguments

componentDidUpdate(prevProps, prevState) {
  // only update chart if the data has changed
  if (prevProps.data !== this.props.data) {
    this.chart = c3.load({
      data: this.props.data
    });
  }
}

Example 2: lifecycles if reactjs

class Clock extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = {date: new Date()};
  }

  componentDidMount() {  }
  componentWillUnmount() {  }
  render() {
    return (
      

        
Hello, world!
        
It is {this.state.date.toLocaleTimeString()}.
      
    );
  }
}
