 Changing the value of the first element in the first nested array, causes the first element to change in all three nested arrays! This same behavior will happen with strings, hashes, or any other mutable objects.

+Each `{ Array.new(2) }` block creates a new inner array. This means all three inner arrays are **independent objects**. When you modify one, the others stay the same.

 Changing the value of the first element in the first nested array does not cause the value to change in any other nested array.
