I have tried on https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_arrow_function.asp but could not get exact answers.

I have tried on some forums too but the exact search results could not be fetched.

=> stands for arrow function which was introduced in ES6.

So instead of typing below syntax for writing function:

function test(m, n) {
    if (w()) return n-1;
}

The same can be written using arrow function:

(m, n) => {
    if (w()) return n-1;
}

In your code snippet, variable l is assigned the value of above function. Your function will return n-1 based on the return of another function w().
