Syntax for writing reducer function

I discovered that the syntax used for writing the reducer function follows the classic javascript style which is

function reducer_name(parameter) {

}

My question goes thus, can I use the arrow function to write a reducer function like this; reducer_name=(parameter)=> { }

I need your insight on this. Thanks

Yes, you can, the arrow function is just a more compact way of writing the same.
