Problem 170

Getting More Data from a File

Using Notepad or the text editor of your choice, create a text file containing five names and five ages. Save this file in the same directory as your program.

Make a class to store information about a person. It should contain fields for:

a single name, which is a String, and
an age, which is an integer

Create an array of type Person with five slots. Call it people (since that makes sense).
Ask the user for the name of a file to open, and open that file and read in five names and ages from the file.
Display the contents of the array using a loop.

Which file to open: nameage.txt
Reading data from nameage.txt

Steve_Jobs is 50
James_Brown is 71
Britney_Spears is 23
Michael_Jackson is 46
Stanley_Kubrick is 76
