Can I use arrow functions in objects in JavaScript?
Yes, you can use arrow functions as methods in objects, but they behave differently than regular functions.
What do you mean by behaving differently?
Arrow functions do not have their own 'this' context. They inherit 'this' from the surrounding lexical scope.
Can you give me an example?
Sure! Here's an example: const obj = { value: 42, getValue: () => this.value }; In this case, 'this' won't refer to 'obj'.
So, how should I define methods in objects?
You should use regular function expressions for methods if you need 'this' to refer to the object itself.
