I am having trouble understanding this code
let txCount = transActions.reduce((count, item) => (count[item] = count[item] + 1 || 1, count), {});
I understand it is using the logical OR expression but what is "1,count" doing here and why does it work?
(count[item] = count[item] + 1 || 1, count)

I have javascript code and I found the following line :
I'm a bit confused about the syntax
e = k.attr("data-icon"), e && (a.icon = e),
I understand the first part : k.attr("data-icon") but not the rest.
Can any one tell me what does that mean please ?

I noticed my colleagues are writing code with double negation in conditions, for example:
else if(colType == 'link'){
value = !!data ? $(data).attr('href') : '';
}
In cases like this, is there a chance that the boolean result of data can be different from !!data?
