its called copy by reference. here first variable 's reference stored in second so
1. if you do any change in second it goes to first variable 's value.
var first = ['my','mind','is'];
var second = first ;
second.push('gone'); //Now, first= ['my','mind','is','gone'] and second= ['my','mind','is','gone']
2. if you do any change in first it goes to second variable 's value
var first = ['my','mind','is'];
var second = first ;
first.push('gone'); //Now, first= ['my','mind','is','gone'] and second= ['my','mind','is','gone']
because there are both same . its clone of each other , reside in same memory with differ name .
so if you want to copy one array to another array
1.copy each value one array to another array by forEach or for or while
var first = ['my','mind','is'];
//var second = first ;
var second = [];
console.log(second);// second array is empty
first.forEach(function(item,index){
second.push(item);// we copied each item to second arrray
});
console.log(first);// first= ['my','mind','is']
console.log(second);// second= ['my','mind','is']
second.push('gone');
console.log(first); // but still first array is remain unchanged first = ['my','mind','is']
console.log(second); //Now, second= ['my','mind','is','gone']
first.push('brilliant');
console.log(first);//Now, second= ['my','mind','is','brilliant']
