9 File IO and grouping

  1. If needed, retrieve the OOP Company project up to chapter 8 from DLO. It contains the classes as you left them at the end of chapter 8.

  2. Create a Data folder in the same folder as your src folder.

  3. Download the files Departments.txt and People.csv from DLO and place them in the Data folder.

  4. Read the departments from the text file Departments.txt and add them to a list named departments. Note: the name and location of the department are on two different lines in the text file.

  5. Read the various persons from the file People.csv and add them to a list named people. A line consists of: person type, name, city, index of the departments list, monthly salary / hourly rate / 0.

  6. Sort the list of persons and print them.

  7. Add code to create an output file PeoplePerDepartment.txt that looks like this (grouped by department):
