// You might think we can just do something like this:
// team[3] = 'Lux';
// however what happens when we update that array?
// now here is the problem!
// oh no - we have edited the original array too!
// Why? It's because that is an array reference, not an array copy. They both point to the same array!
// So, how do we fix this? We take a copy instead!
const team2 = players.slice();
// one day
// or create a new array and concat the old one in
const team3 = [].concat(players);
// or use the new ES6 Spread
const team4 = [...players];

// now when we update it, the original one isn't changed
// The same thing goes for objects, let's say we have a person object
// with Objects
const person = {
name: 'Wes Bos',
age: 80
};
// and think we make a copy:
// const captain = person;
// captain.number = 99;
// how do we take a copy instead?
const cap2 = Object.assign({}, person, { number: 99, age: 12 });
console.log(cap2);
// We will hopefully soon see the object ...spread
// const cap3 = {...person};
// Things to note - this is only 1 level deep - both for Arrays and Objects. lodash has a cloneDeep method, but you should think twice before using it.
