// Module 4 Assignment Instructions.
//
// The idea of this assignment is to take an existing array of names
// and then output either Hello 'Name' or Good Bye 'Name' to the console.
// The program should say "Hello" to any name except names that start with a "J"
// or "j", otherwise, the program should say "Good Bye". So, the final output
// on the console should look like this:
/*
Hello Yaakov
Good Bye John
Good Bye Jen
Good Bye Jason
Hello Paul
Hello Frank
Hello Larry
Hello Paula
Hello Laura
Good Bye Jim

// STEP 1: (NOTHING TO DO. ALREADY DONE FOR YOU)
// Wrap the entire contents of script.js inside of an IIFE
// See Lecture 52, part 2
// (Note, Step 2 will be done in the SpeakHello.js file.)

// STEP 10: (NOTHING TO DO. ALREADY DONE FOR YOU)
// Loop over the names array and say either 'Hello' or "Good Bye"
// using either the helloSpeaker's or byeSpeaker's 'speak' method.
// See Lecture 50, part 1
        
// STEP 11: (NOTHING TO DO. ALREADY DONE FOR YOU)
// Retrieve the first letter of the current name in the loop.
// Use the string object's 'charAt' function. Since we are looking for
// names that start with either upper case or lower case 'J'/'j', call
// string object's 'toLowerCase' method on the result so we can compare
// to lower case character 'j' afterwards.
// Look up these methods on Mozilla Developer Network web site if needed.
      
    
// STEP 12: (NOTHING TO DO. ALREADY DONE FOR YOU)
// Compare the 'firstLetter' retrieved in STEP 11 to lower case
// 'j'. If the same, call byeSpeaker's 'speak' method with the current name
// in the loop. Otherwise, call helloSpeaker's 'speak' method with the current
// name in the loop.
