why we use this.state in react code example

Example 1: state with react functions

class Example extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = {
      count: 0
    };
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <p>You clicked {this.state.count} times</p>
        <button onClick={() => this.setState({ count: this.state.count + 1 })}>
          Click me
        </button>
      </div>
    );
  }
}

Example 2: state in react

class BalanceInquiry extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = {
      totalIncome: 0,
    };
  }

  render() {
    return <div>totalIncome {this.state.totalIncome}</div>;
  }
}
