  • Are there other reasons why useEfffect might not be defined apart from not importing it?
  • Are there other reasons why useEffect might not be defined apart from not importing it?
  • I am creating a button that once clicked will change from off to on with react and i am also creating a responsive clock through useEffect.
  • Yet the code still return that useEffect is undefined though i imported useState.
  • ``````import {useState} from 'react';
  • import "./styles.css";
  • export default function App() {
  • let [PresentState, setPresentState] = useState(false);
  • let [time, seTime] = useState("00:00:00");
  • function toggleState() {
  • setPresentState((prevState) => !prevState);
  • }
  • function getTime() {
  • return new Date().getTime();
  • }
  • useEffect(() => {
  • setTime(getTime());
  • console.log();
  • return () => {};
  • },[]);
  • return (
  • <div className="app">
  • <button onClick={toggleState} className="btn">
  • {PresentState ? "On" : "Off"}
  • </button>
  • <time>00:00:00</time>
