 Here IFE is used to encapsulate the entire library. It contains private variables and functions that are inaccessible from the outside, but it also defines a public API that is exposed through the returned object. \\
 By using an IIFE in this way, you can create a well-structured, modular piece of code that is easy to maintain, while still providing a clear and concise interface for other developers to interact with.
+===== Named IIFE functions =====
+Naming an IIFE function can be helpful for debugging, as the name can appear in stack traces and provide clarity about the function's purpose.
+Example of a named IIFE:
+<code javascript>
+(function namedIIFE() {
+  console.log('This is a named IIFE');
+})();
+</code>
+The name of the IIFE, in this case, is **namedIIFE**.
+<note warning>
+IIFE function name **is not accessible outside the function itself**, so it's primarily used for clarity within the code or debugging purposes. If you try to call namedIIFE() outside of its definition, it will result in a **ReferenceError**, as the name is scoped to the function itself.
