[javascript] arrow function question

Asked 2 years ago, Updated 2 years ago, 175 views

Hello, I am studying arrow function and I have a question.

    const inventors = [
      { { first: 'Albert', last: 'Einstein', year: 1879, passed: 1955 },
      { { first: 'Isaac', last: 'Newton', year: 1643, passed: 1727 },
      { { first: 'Galileo', last: 'Galilei', year: 1564, passed: 1642 },
      { { first: 'Marie', last: 'Curie', year: 1867, passed: 1934 },
      { { first: 'Johannes', last: 'Kepler', year: 1571, passed: 1630 },
      { { first: 'Nicolaus', last: 'Copernicus', year: 1473, passed: 1543 },
      { { first: 'Max', last: 'Planck', year: 1858, passed: 1947 },
      { { first: 'Katherine', last: 'Blodgett', year: 1898, passed: 1979 },
      { { first: 'Ada', last: 'Lovelace', year: 1815, passed: 1852 },
      { { first: 'Sarah E.', last: 'Goode', year: 1855, passed: 1905 },
      { { first: 'Lise', last: 'Meitner', year: 1878, passed: 1968 },
      { { first: 'Hanna', last: 'Hammarström', year: 1829, passed: 1909 }
    ];

    // // Array.prototype.filter()
    // // 1. Filter the list of inventors for those who were born in the 1500's
    const afterInventors = inventors.filter(function(element){
        if(element.year > 1500){
            return element
        } 
    });

I fixed the filter function above with the arrow function.

    const aI = inventors.filter(element => {if(element.year > 1500) return element});

However, I heard that return can be omitted by one line in the arrow function, so I tried to make it by omitting return.

    const aI2 = inventors.filter(element => element.year > 1500);

AI2 created by declaring as above contains the same value. But I don't understand ai2. Is it possible to omit the conditional statement in the arrow function? And if you omit the conditional statement, what do you return...

I want to omit it like aI2... I can only use it like al.

Thank you for reading my question.

I was embarrassed, so I was thinking about erasing it, but I'm leaving a self-answer.

The filter method must return the Boolean type. Therefore..

constaI=inventors.filter(element=> {if(element.year> 1500) return element}); The result will be correct constaI=inventors.filter(element=> {if(element.year> 1500) return Boolean}); is the correct expression.

For filter, it returns true and false const aI2 = inventors.filter(element => element.year > 1500); You can write it like .

Therefore, the filter method, which returns true and false, is extremely easy to write a function using the arrow function.

I'm embarrassed JS, study hard!

=> is not a conditional statement, but a operator and belongs to the comparison operator classification.
The comparison operator receives two values, compares them, and returns a logical value, so it can be used like aI2.
The conditional statement if (condition) simply branches using the result of the expression used in condition, not if performs comparative operations.
