Write a Python function called name_processor that takes a list of students' full names and returns a new list containing the names in the format "Last, First". You can assume that the list contains only strings and that the strings are not empty. In the original list, first and last names are separated by a space e.g. "First Last". Some full names may contain a middle name e.g. "First Middle Last". In these cases, ignore the middle name. It is possible that a student has only a single name (i.e. one word, no spaces). In these cases, add the name to the new list without changing its format.  An example: Calling the function with this list: ["Pele", "Sarah Jessica Parker", "Darth Vader"] ... should return this list: ["Pele", "Parker, Sarah", "Vader, Darth"] You will find the string method .split() useful for this problem. A) Describe all the test cases you you can think of for the function you wrote for this question. For example, one test case would be a list containing a name that has no spaces. B) Write unit tests for the test cases you described in part A. You may put all tests in a single function if you prefer

Question

Write a Python function called name_processor that takes a list of students' full names and returns a new list containing the names in the format "Last, First". You can assume that the list contains only strings and that the strings are not empty. In the original list, first and last names are separated by a space e.g. "First Last". Some full names may contain a middle name e.g. "First Middle Last". In these cases, ignore the middle name. It is possible that a student has only a single name (i.e. one word, no spaces). In these cases, add the name to the new list without changing its format. 

An example:

Calling the function with this list: ["Pele", "Sarah Jessica Parker", "Darth Vader"]

... should return this list: ["Pele", "Parker, Sarah", "Vader, Darth"]

You will find the string method .split() useful for this problem.

A) Describe all the test cases you you can think of for the function you wrote for this question. For example, one test case would be a list containing a name that has no spaces.

B) Write unit tests for the test cases you described in part A. You may put all tests in a single function if you prefer but ensure you have enough assertions to cover all test cases.
