sort by field

Create a function, sort_object_list_by_field(), that does the following:

• Takes a list of objects, and returns an array of those objects, sorted by an arbitrary property

Input:

• input_array: an array of objects
• sort_field: property to sort by

Output:

• output_array, an array sorted by the given field of each object

Example:

var input_array = 
[
	{name: 'John', age:42, gender:'M'},
	{name: 'Jack', age:34, gender:'M'},
	{name: 'Michael',age:40, gender: 'M'},
	{name: 'Kendra',age:48, gender:'F'}
]

output = sort_object_list_by_field(input_array, age); console.log(output); //outputs

[
	{name: 'Jack', age:34, gender:'M'},
	{name: 'Michael',age:40, gender: 'M'},
	{name: 'John', age:42, gender:'M'},
	{name: 'Kendra',age:48, gender:'F'}
]

• hint: Here is an example of a bubble sort in both psuedo-code and javascript which can serve as the basis of your sorting function.
