arrays and entry data

[cameclifton]

Write an application namedCollegeList that declares an array of four "regular" CollegeEmployees, three Falulty, and seven Students. Prompt the user to specify which type of person's data will be entered('C'F'S') or allow user to quit('Q') . While user chooses to continue accept data entry for approate type of Person. If user attempts to enter data for more than four CollegeEmployeed, three Faculty, or seven Students, display error message. When user quits, display report on screen listing each group of Persons under appropriate heating "College Employee"Faculty","Students". If user has not entered data for one or more types of Persons during session, display an appropriat message under appropriate heading.
I need help with the arrays and everything else in instructions It would help to have a start on the arrays and the the users prompt (CFSor Q) and I could complete the rest. Thanks

I would start not by trying to do the assignment, but by trying to break down the assignment into generic programming problems. "How do I get input from the user?" "How do I make an array?", etc. We can help you with these sorts of things (after you Google for some tutorials, of course). Once you have these building blocks, the assignment should be easy to complete.
