+ Final Program
+Due on Tuesday, November 29th before midnight (no late assignments accepted since this is the last day of class)
+200 Points
+Write a program that does the following:
+
+    Create a parent class called Person and it will have the variables to store first name, last name and their favorite movie
+    Move the Person class into a header file (you may keep the code together until finished, then move it to a header file to make this easier)
+    Create a child class that inherits from the Person class called Movie. It will store the variables movie name, box office gross, and year made
+    Get data via the keyboard or an input file for each of the above variables. Please store at least 3 sets of data to make the program interesting
+    As you read in the movie name, check it for <HTML> tags and remove any found
+    Create a simple menu that will ask a user if they want to:
+        Sort on the movie name
+        Sort on the box office gross
+        Sort on the year the movie was made
+        Display the highest grossing movie's info
+        Display the lowest grossing movie's info
+    The menu should loop until the user is finished making choices
+    If the person's favorite movie matches the a movie entered, output a special message to the screen
+    Output to the screen each time the user makes a selection
+
+Assignment Notes:
+
+    You are free to use arrays or vectors. Or, you can mix/match. It is up to you.
+    It will be easier if you have all of your functions in a class. This is not required though.
+    You can get the information via the keyboard or from an input file. Up to you. 
+    Your variables should be in a class - Private or Protected sections. 
+    I will be closely watching for cheating (copying from friends, online help, etc.) 
+
+General Notes:
+
+    Be sure to use comments in your program: Name, Program Description, Date and anywhere else in the program you deem necessary.
+    Much of this code came from the midterm, so you can watch the midterm key videos to see how to write a lot of this code
+    I will provide limited help in the classroom and/or email. Being a final exam, I cannot help a lot. I recommend you watch the recorded lectures on Blackboard since everything I ask you to do in this exam has examples in those lectures
+
+Grading Rubric:
+
+    If you do not include comments at the top of the program (name, program description, date), you will lose 30 points
+    If you do not use functions, then your program will not be OOP and you will get a 0/200
+    If your program is not OOP, then you will get a 0/200
+    If your program does not use inheritance, you will lose 75 points
+    If your program does not sort or sort properly, you will lose up to 60 points
+    If your program does not output a special message when a movie name matches the user's favorite movie, you will lose 20 points
+    If your program uses global variables, you will lose 10 points for each used
+    If your program does not compile (run), then I will give a grade of 0/200. But will give you the change to repair for points back (some points are better than none)
+    If your program is not formatted nicely (code all over the place, ugly), you will lose up to 50 points depending on the extent
+    If your program stops working when I run it, you will lose points. The exact amount depends on the severity of the error
+    If your program still has your friend's name on it, I will send you a message asking you to try harder while giving you a 0/200
+    If your program looks like a a professional programmer wrote it, I will write to you to ask if you want a job. Well, maybe not. But, I will ask about the code
+    This is just a list of typical issues I run into when grading to give you some idea of where your points go. Points can be taken off for other reasons.
