Description: This method creates a shallow copy of an object, meaning that nested objects are not cloned but referenced.

Example:

const original = {
  name: 'Max',
  age: 6,
  color: 'black'
};

const copy = Object.assign({}, original);
console.log(copy); // Output: { name: 'Max', age: 6, color: 'black' }

copy.name = 'Maxwell';
console.log(original.name); // Output: 'Max' (original object is not affected)
