Guide

Javascript array methods are arrays forming a data structure containing list of elements which store multiple values in a single variable. The strength of JavaScript arrays lies in the array methods which are built-in functions we can apply to our arrays. Each method has a unique function that performs a change or calculation to our array, saving having to write common functions from scratch.

long version of the code

const ordered = inventors.sort(function(a,b){
    if(a.year > b.year) {
          return 1;
   } else {
    return -1;
   }
});    
console.table(ordered);

short verson or ternary version of the above code

const ordered = inventors.sort((a,b) => a.year > b.year ? 1 : -1);
console.table(ordered);
