    this.str = "String"; //Defining a string
    this.number = 3; //Defining a number
  }
}

var classReference = new myClass(); //Making new instance of class
var myObjectToCopy;

function copyClass() {
  myObjectToCopy = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(classReference)); //Converting class to a string then turning that string into an object
}
