Is dispatch method necessary?

Tell us what’s happening:
I have a doubt. The following code works correctly. But I don’t understand how the action argument gets the values from the defined actions, in the reducer method. I would need to use the dispatch method, wouldn’t I?

Your code so far


const defaultState = {
authenticated: false
};

const authReducer = (state = defaultState, action) => {
// change code below this line
switch (action.type) {
  case 'LOGIN':
    return {authenticated: true};
  case 'LOGOUT':
    return {authenticated: false};
  default:
    return state;
}
// change code above this line
};

const store = Redux.createStore(authReducer);

const loginUser = () => {
return {
  type: 'LOGIN'
}
};

const logoutUser = () => {
return {
  type: 'LOGOUT'
}
};
