The code enclosed within () parentheses is a self-executing anonymous function or IIFE (Immediately Invoked Function Expression). This function is defined and executed immediately, and it creates a new private scope in which the code inside it is executed. This helps to prevent variable and function naming clashes with other code in the global scope.
