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 your home directory.

Make a record 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.

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.
