Zoo Monitoring System
As a zookeeper, it is important to know the activities of the animals in your care and to monitor their living habitats. Create a monitoring system that does all of the following:
1. Uses at least TWO classes
2. Uses well-constructed comments explaining each section of code.
3. Asks a user if they want to monitor an animal, monitor a habitat, or exit
Example:
4. Displays a menu of animal/habitat options (based on the previous selection) as read from either the animals.txt or habitats.txt. Additional entries will be made into both .txt files so program must read and display the menus from the .txt files dynamically.
Asks the user to enter one of the options
Examples:
OR
5. Displays the monitoring information by finding and reading from the appropriate section in the file.
Example:
OR
6. Separates sections by the category and selection (such as “Animal – Lion” or “Habitat – Penguin”)
7. Uses a dialog box to alert the zookeeper if the monitor detects something out of the normal range (These will be denoted in the files by a new line starting with *****. Do not display the asterisks in the dialog.)
Example:
8. Allows a user to return to the main menu.
Program contains:
1. Input/Output: program reads input from the user and uses system output.
2. Control Structures: program utilizes appropriate control structures for program logic.
3. Libraries: program utilizes standard libraries to pull in predefined functionality.
4. Classes Breakdown: program is broken down into at least two appropriate classes.
5. Methods: program utilizes all included methods correctly within the classes.
