Lesson 4:

Exercise 4.15:

Cities database


Objetive:

Create a database to store information about cities.

In a first approach, we will store only the name of each city and the number of inhabitants, and allocate space for up to 500 cities.

The menu should include the following options:
1 .- Add a new city (at the end of the existing data)
2 .- View all cities (name and inhabitants)
3 .- Modify a record (rename and / or change number of inhabitants)
4 .- Insert a new record (in a specified position, moving the following ones to the right)
5 .- Delete a record (moving the following ones to the left so that no empty spaces are left)
6 .- Search in the records (display the ones which contain a certain text in their name, whether in upper or lower case, using partial search)
7 .- Correct the capitalization of the names (turn into uppercase the first letter and the ones after a space, and make the rest lowercase).
0 .- Exit
