Random name generator
A random name generator.
A random name generator can be useful for creating dummy data for test purposes.
Make
Write a program to output a random name from one list of forenames and another list of surnames.
Use this boilerplate code as a starting point:
Success Criteria
Remember to add a comment before a subprogram, selection or iteration statement to explain its purpose.
Complete the subprogram called `generate_name` that:
- Assigns an array of forenames. You can use the names: Muhammad, Noah, Jack, Lily, Sophia, Olivia or some of your own.
- Assigns an array of surnames. You can use the names: Wang, Smith, Devi, Jones, Kim and RodrÃguez or some of your own.
- It returns a random forename with a space and a random surname.
Complete the `main program` so that:
- It outputs a random name.
Typical inputs and outputs from the program would be:
Lily RodrÃguez
Sophia Devi

Evaluate
Run your program several times to check that your program has met the success criteria.
Check that you have:
- Used comments within the code to describe the purpose of subprograms, conditions and iterations.
- Used meaningful identifier names. That means the names of subprograms and variables indicate what they are for.
