 To copy a more complex table with nested tables inside it, you'll need to use a recursive function similar to the following:
 
 ```lua
-local function deepCopy(original)
+-- The function used for deep copying a table
+local function deepCopy(original)	
+	-- Define the new table for the copy
 	local copy = {}
-	for k, v in pairs(original) do
-		if type(v) == "table" then
-			v = deepCopy(v)
-		end
-		copy[k] = v
+	
+	-- Loop through the original table to clone
+	for key, value in original do
+		-- If the type of the value is a table, deep copy it to the key (index)
+		-- Else (or) the type isn't a table, assign the default value to the index instead
+		copy[key] = type(value) == "table" and deepCopy(value) or value
 	end
+	
+	-- Return the finalized copy of the deep cloned table
 	return copy
 end
 ```
