The approve
function in the ERC20 contract allows a token holder to grant a specified amount of tokens to a spender, enabling the spender to transfer tokens on behalf of the holder. It ensures that neither the owner nor the spender is a zero address and emits an Approval
event upon successful execution.
spender
(address
): The address that will be allowed to spend the tokens.amount
(uint256

if the approval was successful.
