The primary purpose of assign() is to create a shallow copy of an object. It means that the values of the properties are cloned, but the object references are copied instead of creating new objects. This implies that if you modify a property in the original object, the corresponding property in the copied object will also be modified....

If you call the repeat() method without any parameters or with a parameter of 0, it will return an empty string:...
