What is the map.clear() method in TypeScript?

// Create some maps 
let evenNumbers = new Map<string, number>([["two", 2], ["four", 4], ["eight", 8]])
let cart = new Map<string, number>([["rice", 500], ["bag", 10]])
let countries = new Map<string, string>([["NG", "Nigeria"], ["BR", "Brazil"], ["IN", "India"]])
let isMarried = new Map<string, boolean>([["James", false], ["Jane", true], ["Doe", false]])
let emptyMap = new Map<null, null>()
// Log out the maps before clearing their entries
console.log("Maps before clearing their entries")
console.log(evenNumbers)
console.log(cart)
console.log(countries)
console.log(isMarried)
console.log(emptyMap)
// Clear the maps
evenNumbers.clear()
cart.clear()
countries.clear()
isMarried.clear()
emptyMap.clear()
// Log out the maps after clearing their entries
console.log("\nMaps after clearing their entries")
console.log(evenNumbers)
console.log(cart)
console.log(countries)
console.log(isMarried)
console.log(emptyMap)
