Coding Exercise - David Medrano

/* Instructions: If you get stuck write the portion out you can't complete in 
   pseudo code (try to still be specific about what you would do). Include a 
   question worded how you would ask another member of the development team 
   to gain the information needed to be able to complete the task. Code 
   should be commented. Include a commented section at the top with your name,
   date of development, and purpose of script.

   Add an object for yourself following a similar format. Put each object in 
   an array so you have an array of objects (your choice how to do that). 
   Iterate through the array of objects adding the date the script was run 
   to each object as favorite things may change in the future. Console.log 
   only active records with the Name, date, Favorite movie of each person. 
   Add a function that can sort the output by object property. There may 
   be a time where no Active records are found. Include code that provides 
   a message when that occurs.

// Question: Is there a possibility that we would need to add dynamically more fields? Should we prepare the code for that?
// Will we have different status than Active and Inactive in the future?
// Will this be run multiple times in the future? For what use case?

// Name: David Medrano
// Date of Development: 06/02/2025
// Script Purpose: Filtering and enhancing objects of people and their preferences
