GlobalX Coding Assessment

Introduction

This is my submission for the 'GlobalX Coding Assessment' offered to shortlisted job candidates as of June 2021. The basic objective is to create a .NET Core application that takes a list of names inside a text file and sorts them according to last name (A-Z)

Assessment instructions were sent as a PDF. I converted it to a markdown file for public viewing.

A revised version was released on 4 April 2022.

Running

To run the script, navigate to the 'NameSorter' folder and execute:
dotnet run ./unsorted-names-list.txt

You can also optionally specify an output path but the default will be 'sorted-names-list.txt'

For the unit tests, I chose to use NUnit. To run them, navigate to the project root and execute dotnet test
