# Write a function that returns true if youngest_person() works correctly. 
# *Then*, write youngest_person() and check that it's correct using your test.
# youngest_person() should take an Array of people and return the youngest one.
#
# Hint: Consider using max or min, which are defined on the ruby docs site.

def youngest_person(people)
  # ??? <-- Only do this after writing the test and making sure it starts out failing!
