Exploring the difference between regular and arrow functions

To illustrate the difference, I'll make a variable called user, which will be an object. On this object we'll specify one property, name. Set name equal to the string, your name, in this case I'll set it equal to the string Andrew:

var user = {  name: 'Andrew'};

Then we can define a method on the user object. Right after name, with my comma at the end of the line, I'll provide the method sayHi, setting it equal to an arrow function (=>) that doesn't take any arguments. For the moment, we'll keep the arrow function really simple:

var user = {  name: 'Andrew',  sayHi: () => {  }};

All we'll do inside sayHi is use console.log to print to the screen, inside of template strings Hi:

var user ...
