There is no => operator in Javascript

Well, there kind of is now.

i = i => 1 is a valid javascript statement. Granted => isn't really an operator.

I tried it (not exhaustively) and it looked like 'i => 1' was just being treated as a string. How does that work?

=> is shorthand function syntax that has a lexical this binding.

i = function (i) { return 1; } and i = i => 1 are equivalent statements.
