Operation

• This application stores a list of 100 movies and displays them by category.
• The user can enter any of the following categories to display the films in the list that match the category:
  • animated
  • drama
  • horror
  • scifi
• After each list is displayed, the user is asked whether to continue. If the user enters Y or y, the program asks for another category. Otherwise, the program ends.

Specifications

• Each movie should be represented by an object of type Movie. The Movie class must provide two public fields: title and category. Both of these fields should be Strings. The class should also provide a constructor that accepts a title and category as parameters and uses the values passed to it to initialize its fields.
• You will be supplied with a class named MovieIO that has a method named getMovie. This method accepts an int argument that can be a number from 1 to 100. When called, it returns a unique Movie object for each value passed to it. You should use this method to fill the array list with 100 Movie objects.
• When the user enters a category, the program should read through all of the movies in the ArrayList and display a line for any movie whose category matches the category entered by the user.

Required Enhancement

• Standardize the category codes by displaying a menu of category choices and asking the user to select the category by number rather than by entering the category code.
