Using ES6 Functions

Question

Hey everyone! I wanted to make my entire code with ES6 features but I failed at some point. So, my questions are:
- How to make the setInterval() as an arrow function, without having to come up with a name for the function itself?
- Sometimes, when I make an arrow function with a variable declaration, for example: const clk = ()=>{}; I get an Uncaught reference error : Cannon access clk before initialisation. What does that even mean?

Answer 1

Hi Vasilis Karapas, I found this very cool article.
(I hope it helps you)
https://googlechrome.github.io/samples/arrows-es6/
even setInterval es6 version is covered there.

Answer 2

let count = setInterval(showTime, 1000);
let count = setInterval(() => showTime(), 1000);
something like this?

Answer 3

Like this as well,
window.onload=()=>{
console.log("hi");
setInterval(this.onload,1000)
}

Answer 4

Code works perfectly by the way. I just wanted to make some minor adjustments, to the onload function and the setInterval() to make it ES6 style.

Answer 5

RKK It's a nice start. It works nicely. However, I want to link this to the window.onload function by making the window.onload ES6 style, also. So far, I was able to get the setInterval() work only by naming the window.onload function and writing it as a normal function, not an arrow one.

Answer 6

RKK Thanks for the article, I'll have a look.
