Arrow Function, if you have any hint or suggestions on how to code this, i would like to thank you for the help.

Task: convert the function in the arrowfunction.js file into ES6 functions

JS:

function addFive(num) { return num + 5; } // TODO: Convert addFive() to arrow function

function divideBy(x, y) { return x / y; } // TODO: Convert divideBy() to arrow function

function logToConsole() { let msg = "MIT Coding Certificate"; console.log(msg); } // TODO: Convert logToConsole() to arrow function

An arrow function expression is a compact alternative to a traditional function expression. An example of an arrow function goes as follows.

// Traditional Function
function (a, b){
  let chuck = 42;
  return a + b + chuck;
}

// Arrow Function
(a, b) => {
  let chuck = 42;
  return a + b + chuck;
}

(if you still don't understand, or just want more information check out this site for a more detailed explanation.)
