Spread Operator is a feature in JavaScript and other programming languages that allows you to spread an array into individual elements. It is a convenient way to pass an array as arguments to a function or to create a new array from an existing one.
How Spread Operator Works
The spread operator is represented by three dots (...). When used in front of an array, the spread operator expands the array into individual elements. For example, the following code creates a new array by spreading the numbers array:
const numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
const newNumbers = [...numbers];
The newNumbers array will now contain the individual elements from the numbers array: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
